Frederick Todd Williams, age 59, of Barry, IL passed away on Saturday, January 28, 2023 at Blessing Hospital in Quincy, IL. He was born on May 1, 1963 in Keokuk, IA, the son of Garnet 'Rocky' and Kathleen Symington.
Todd graduated from Yorkwood High School in 1981. He went on to work construction for many years and also drove a semi. He had most recently been working in Fulfillment at Ascend in Barry. Todd's passion was deer hunting and he worked as a guide for many years at Eagle Lakes Outfitters. He also enjoyed fishing and shed antler hunting, making hunting calls out of his finds. Todd was a knife collector and loved music, especially rock, and preferred it to be played loudly. He was a good cook and was talented at drawing. Todd was a people person and would help anybody. He was funny, caring, and he greatly loved his children. He will be remembered for his smile and contagious laugh.
He is survived by his parents, Garnet 'Rocky' and Kathleen Symington; son, Nicholas Williams of Quincy, IL; four daughters, Tiffany (Adam) Watkins of Eldridge, IA, Trisha (Mike) Desmet of Eldridge, IA, Natalie Williams of El Dara, IL, and Elizabeth Williams of New Canton, IL; five grandchildren, Tyler Watkins, Payton Watkins, Teagan Desmet, Tatum Desmet, Gabriel Williams, and one grandchild on the way, Felix Penn; sister, Tamy (Corey) Brown of Kansas City, MO; niece and nephew, Hayli Brown and Corben Brown; two uncles, Ronald (Joanne) Harris of Quincy, IL and Roger (Karen) Harris of Barry, IL; best friend, Chris Coultas of Barry, IL; and several cousins.
