For many years Mr. Williams worked faithfully as a lead electrician for Oak Grove Coal mines. In addition to his duties as an electrician, he was a skilled Master Carpenter.

Of his many hobbies, he was very fond of fishing, playing dominoes with friends & family, and an occasional game of billiards.

Growing up in the Williams household, the brothers recount fond memories of playing tag with their father every morning before he went to work.

At random he would break out singing, "You Are So Beautiful" or "Reasons" being sure to sing all the high notes."Zoc Zippy Zay What do you say"," Need the money now" and "Hey Buddy" are a few of his hilarious statements. Osie Williams is survived by his brother John Williams of Chicago; his life partner Veronica Williams (Coleman), two sons, Eric and Daniel Williams; six grandchildren Kristin, Leighne, Autumn, Brendon, Ashton, and Fallon; and a host of nieces and nephews.
