Roy Williams Jr., 77, of Carthage, loving husband, father, grandfather, and best friend. Roy has been called many things in life, but on Monday, January 27, 2025, he was called home to be with Jesus. His wheelchair was left behind, his body made whole. Roy completed his earthly task and was needed to come home to begin his Heavenly journey. What a sight it would be to see him running the streets in heaven! What a reunion that will be! He will be singing to the top of his lungs, strumming his guitar, and playing harmonica, all for Jesus. All to the glory of God.

Born in Moore County, on May 10, 1947, he was the son of the late Roy and Hazel Garner Williams. Roy was a supervisor over maintenance and facilities at Ingersoll Rand, where he retired after many years. Roy was a handyman. He loved working on and fixing things, fishing, gardening, but above all, he loved helping others. Family meant everything to Roy, his children and grandchildren were the light of his world. 

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his twin sister: Joy Goodhue; as well as a granddaughter: Aniston Williams. 

Roy is survived by his devoted wife: Carol Martin Williams who was the love of his life for 55 years; two sons: Chris Williams and Fiancé Trisha, Michael Williams and wife Angela; grandchildren: Morgan Suddreth and husband Jordan, Hannah Williams, Landon Williams. 

A funeral service will be held on Friday, January 31, 2025 at 11 am Faith Baptist Church with Pastors Chad Nall and Gregg Newton officiating. Burial will follow at Fairview Baptist Church Cemetery.
