John Williamson Obituary

John Anthony "Little John" Williamson September 22, 1952 - July 8, 2024 John Anthony Williamson passed away July 8th after a long battle with Parkinson's disease. John was born in Fort Gordon, Georgia in 1952, and was happily married to his high school sweetheart, Kristi for 51 years.

John worked as a diesel mechanic, mostly on logging equipment for 20 years. In addition to being a skilled mechanic, he was a jack of all trades and would drop everything to go help a friend with projects. Everyone in the Teanaway Valley that knew "Little John" knew they had a friend to call when they needed an extra set of hands (or a backhoe).

He enjoyed hunting, fishing, and being in nature. His favorite pastimes were shooting pool, playing poker, working on the family cabin and always joking around with friends and family.

John is survived by his wife Kristi Williamson, son Luke Williamson (Shannon), daughter Sara Williamson (Matt) and five grandchildren Riley, Aiden, Cooper, Jace and Charlie.

John and his tremendous sense of humor will be missed deeply.

Celebration of Life will be held at the Eagles Club in Cle Elum on September 21st from 1:00-6:00 p.m.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
