To the family of Bishop Robert Williams III. I was shocked to hearing the passing of my good musician friend. A good person he was and always kept a smile on his face. I say to you the "Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal". Your family are in our prayers.

We did not know Bishop Williams very long. It may have been about a year ago when we met him while making a delivery to our establishment. He was a very nice gentleman, very mannerly and strictly business. We were so surprised and saddened to know that he had passed. Our condolences go to his family, friends and associates.

Please accept my heartfelt sympathy for you loss; The Bishop as I called him every Sunday morning, he will be missed. As you journey without him, just know that he loved his children equally. I could just imagine right now that Bishop is worshipping and singing in the presence of his heavenly Father.
As you grieve just remember that Jesus is just a prayer away to comfort you during this time.
