Larry Williford Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Hamilton Mill Memorial Chapel & Gardens from Dec. 29 to Dec. 30, 2025.
Larry Kenneth Williford, age 68, passed away on December 27, 2025, in Buford, Georgia. He was born on August 21, 1957, in Atlanta, Georgia, and spent most of his adult life living in Gwinnett County.
Larry worked in accounting, specializing in pension statements for 401(k) plans, and retired from Pension Financial Services. He was an avid sports enthusiast and a devoted Georgia Tech fan, proudly cheering for the Yellow Jackets even in a family full of Dawg fans. When his daughter was young, he found great joy in coaching youth softball and basketball. Larry also loved to travel and treasured time spent with his grandchildren.
He is survived by his wife, LeAnn Williford; his daughter, Christy Williford; his grandchildren, Zach, Lilly, and Farrah; his brothers, Jerry (Su) Williford and Donny (Connie) Williford; and numerous nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, Cecil and Celia Williford; his brothers, Cecil, David, and Robert Williford; his sister, Dulcie Shrider; and his daughter, Laurie Williford.
A celebration of life will be planned early in the new year. Larry will be deeply missed as a loving husband, father, Grandad, and friend.
