Jeremy Lee Williams, 16 years old, passed during the early morning of January 20th, 2024 with his family surrounding him. Jeremy was born February 12, 2007 to Ashlyn Speegle and he was the oldest of her two children.
Jeremy attended Austin High School in Decatur Alabama. Jeremy was a proud member of his school and was rarely found not wearing an Austin High School sweat shirt. Jeremy was on the wrestling team at Austin High School and loved his teammates. He balanced his athletic side with his young adult side very well, as he worked at Wendy's and was a student athlete.
He was very well mannered and mature and was never caught not saying "yes ma'am or yes sir". He loved hanging out with his friends, cooking, and playing video games. He was a cherished member in the culinary class at Austin High School, as he loved cooking as much as he did eating. Jeremy aspired to be a chef and open a food truck business with his best friend.
He enjoyed time around his family and was always bringing joy to everyone with his sweet smile and goofy jokes. He was known to be so loving and kind hearted and would do anything for anyone. He had a servant heart and always strived to help wherever he could. His famous phrase "you good," brought comfort and support to those around him. Words alone can not grasp how great of a person Jeremy Lee Williams was. He was simply amazing. His sweet soul changed many lives and he will forever be remember in the highest regard.
He is survived by his parents, Ashlyn Speegle and Michael Speegle. His sister Abigail Speegle. His aunt and uncle, Amanda (Mae mae) Jackson and Joshua Jackson. Bonus sisters Kenzie Price and Sophia Jackson. Cousins Kaden Smith and Mason Smith. Grandfather, Danny Willbanks. He is loved and remembered by many more family members and several of friends that he considered family.
"You taught me to be strong and resilient, as if you knew I'd need that strength when you left me unexpectedly."
Visitation Services will be held at Peck Funeral Home Tuesday January 23rd, 2024 from 6-8.
