Welcome to Williams Funeral Home

Earl Williams departed this life in the arms of the Lord on September 14, 2021. He was born to the late John Williams and Dorothy Boykin Scarborough in Lee County. He attended the public schools of Sumter County. After the passing of his father, he became a provider for his mother and siblings.

He was a great father to his children and a father figure to his nieces and nephews.
