Mr. Williams was one of my best teachers, he taught me a lot about building, and as he taught me building I was also learning to build in life. All his lessons have helped me and others as I have worked, he was also one of my first employer’s, and yes he learned you on the job also. My prayers go out to the family, he will be missed.
