In the early hours of Christmas Eve, 2023, the Williams family lost their beloved patriarch, Thomas Baker Williams. Tom was born on January 7, 1951, to Harold and Elizabeth Williams in Indiana. The proud father of Nathan Luke Williams, Zachary Hamilton Williams, Ian Williams Watt, and Mojo Alexander Watt Williams. Tom endlessly proclaimed himself, “the luckiest dad in the world.” In addition, he is survived by his beloved siblings: sister Betty Welch and brothers Harold Douglas and Edward Michael, as well as his beloved grandchildren: Noah,Isabel, Aubrey, Trent, Emelia, and Elijah. When it came to family, Tom surged with an untamable and indelible love.
Though he has passed on, Tom’s presence remains through his infectious qualities passed on to his family and anyone who had the privilege to truly know him. A wealth of stories, catch- phrases, and memories will echo down the hall of time for generations. A man like this does not go quietly into that good night; he inspired and uplifted those around him with his strength and humor up to his last day.
In keeping with Tom’s wishes there will be no public service. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to Hospice or your local Humane Society.
