Mr. R. Bruce Williams, a cherished husband, father, grandfather, friend, electrician and respected businessman, passed away on June 16, 2025, at the age of 73. He was a lifelong resident of the Wilson, Oklahoma area and will be greatly missed by his family and community.

Bruce was born on April 21, 1952, in Pawnee, Oklahoma, to Rufus Jack and Emma Lucy Powell Williams. He graduated from Wilson High School in 1971 and furthered his education at Murray State College in Tishomingo, Oklahoma. It was during this time that he met his future wife, Belinda Tomlinson Williams, through his college roommate and brother-in-law, Coy Fergueson. They shared a loving marriage that spanned over 52 years.

Throughout his career, Bruce worked as an electrician with Baker Electric, served as a Production Supervisor for L.E. Jones Production, and contributed his skills at Oklahoma Steel and Wire. At the age of 50, he founded his own company and operated All Points Services for more than two decades. Known for his strong work ethic and community spirit, Bruce genuinely enjoyed helping others find employment and always had a special fondness for cattle, tractors, and the joys of farm life. He cherished moments spent having breakfast with his grandchildren.

Bruce was a member of Rexroat Baptist Church in Wilson, where he found fellowship and support.

He is preceded in death by his parents and several beloved family members, including brothers-in-law Jim Forch and Donnie Reynolds, and grandparents Otto and Alemeda Mae Dennis Powell and Tempie Arizona Copeland Pruitt.

He leaves behind his devoted wife, Belinda Williams, and their children, ShaRhonda and Jason Crow of Broken Arrow, OK; Jason and Elizabeth Williams of Leesville, South Carolina; and Stephanie Williams and Jacob Chaney of Wilson, OK. Bruce is also survived by his grandchildren: Tristan Williams, Jadyn McMillen and Austin Rhoden, Seth Williams, Braden and Danielle Crow, Mika Williams and Josh Harrell, Rowdy Palmer and Aliyah Correia, Kaybrie Crow, Judah Williams, Grady Palmer, and Emma Williams, along with great-granddaughter Aurora Rhoden. He is also survived by his sisters: Emma Nayoma Reynolds, Valta Oline Forch, Gloria Williams, and Patricia and Wally Fisher.

A visitation will be held on the evening of Wednesday, June 18, 2025, from 5:00 to 7:00 P.M. at the Alexander Gray Funeral Home Chapel in Wilson. Funeral services will take place at Rexroat Baptist Church on June 19, 2025, at 11:00 A.M., officiated by his son, Jason Williams, with Rev. Jimmy May assisting. Interment will follow at Bomar Point Cemetery.
