Neil A. Williamson

Neil Alden Williamson, age 81, passed away on Sunday, December 7, 2025. He was born on March 31, 1944, in Madison, Wis., to Walter and Marcia Williamson.

Neil graduated from Madison East High School in 1962. He worked for the U.S. Postal Service until his retirement at the age of 49. Neil loved cars, the Packers, Badger football and basketball, the Brewers and visiting casinos. Neil loved his kitty, Princess Leia. During the last few months of his life, Leia rarely left his lap or his bed. She sometimes would get in the way of the nurses who were attending to him. She was very protective of him.

Matney, Judy Wolfram, Toni (Jim) Nelson and Karen (Brian) Williamson; daughter Kristin (Roy) Newman; stepchildren Brandon (Patricia) Biddick, Jacqueline (John) Coluccy and Tammy (Mike) Deegan.
