Jerome Williams Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Tabor Funeral Home and Cremation Services - Brighton on Jan. 5, 2026.
Jerome John Williams (Jerry) was born on November 28, 1934, in Cleveland, Ohio, to Carl and Adeline Williams.

He was married to Jerry Jr.'s Veronica, and Adeline's mother before I met him. We met in 1978 and went together for three years and married on October 17, 1981. I brought Erin, Kim, and Michael to the marriage. From our children, we have 30 grandchildren and 26 great-grandchildren. All live in different states.

Jerry worked at various jobs throughout his life. He was a school bus driver, worked for plumbing supply, and his last job was a driver for an auto supply warehouse in Texas in 2018, when he was 84, he drove 250 miles a day for almost four years. Then we moved to Brighton, CO, to live with our son Michael and his wife Stacey. We have been very happy here.

Jerry liked to drive. In April of 2023, we drove to Ohio for a church conference. Then in May of 2023, we drove to California for Mother's Day with our other daughter Erin. Then on to Texas in September to see friends.

In 2024, in September, we drove to Maryland for our granddaughter Sammy's wedding, then on to Aiken, South Carolina, to meet our grandson Jason and his family, then to Tennessee to see our daughter Kimmie. During all these trips Jerry drove - his favorite thing.

How do you begin to Thank a Man who meant so much in your life? How do you thank him for his love, encouragement, wisdom, knowledge, grounding, God talks, and support pretty much your entire life? I am not sure you can but I sure hope Dad Williams you knew how much I loved and appreciated you.

Boy did Erin and I give you some grief, but you loved us even though we got into some trouble from time to time. Forever sorry for those days, I am sure it was Erin´s fault :).

I know that you are dancing and rejoicing with our God and I know you heard the words "well done my good and faithful servant." I will miss you but the years and times together will always hold a special place in my heart. Enjoy your forever home

Jerry or Pops as us kids called him was always a bright light to those of us who kids who grew up coming over the house on a daily basis! The talks we had, the advice you gave, the genuine warm embrace and the love you shared with me will stay with me always. I love you Pops and I know I will see you again someday.
