To The WIlliams Family,
We will truly miss "Fats". It was just a few weeks before he left that we were at a picnic laughing and having a good time. "Fats always remembered our daughter because they shared the same birthday. She said she remembered when "Fats" would come by and tell her "Happy Birthday" and sometimes had something for her. Stay strong brothers and sisters lean on GOD and each other. "Fats" is in a better place looking after all of you along with GOD. Our prayers and thoughts are always with you.

To the Williams Family
I've heard the saying so many times that the streets are paved with gold in God's Kingdom. And I believe that "Fats" is walking those streets with the biggest smile on his face. God will comfort you and embrace you through all your sorrows. And may all your memories of Fats always bring joy to your heart.
