Robert Williams Obituary
Robert Lee Williams was born January 16, 1948 in Finger, TN, the son of Bessie Smith Williams and the late Warren Williams.
Robert was united in marriage to Wanda Faye Smith on April 20, 1978. He was a member of the Finger Church of Christ. He had worked for Brown Shoe Company, Kolpak, DRI, and Monogram before retiring.
In his leisure time, Robert enjoyed hunting and fishing. He had a keen eye for history and appreciation for treasures of the past, which led him to enjoy coin collecting and antiquing. Beyond his passions, he held a profound love for his family and his loyal pet companion, "Brownie".
Though Robert may no longer walk among us, his legacy of love, kindness, and cherished moments will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew him. He will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered.
