To the Williams and Daily Family;
My condolences to you all for the loss of Mr. Williams. He always had a smile and kind word to say when he would come into McDonald's for his coffee. Sitting outside in the back and speaking with him over the years I have missed. May you find comfort and peace in knowing that you now have a angel looking over you.
