Paul Dean Williams, age 66, of Shiloh Road, Willard passed from his earthly life Monday, March 3, 2025, at Novant New Hanover Regional Medical Center.

He was born October 10, 1958, in Mansfield, Ohio, the son of Robert Lee Williams and Marie Lacy Williams.

Paul is survived by his daughter, Jordan Williams-Hudak and her husband, Matthew; best friend and Boon companion, Jacqueline "Jackie" Newton; Jackie's daughter, Jordan Fieldstein and her husband, Cal Hall; and several siblings. Not to be forgotten are his four canine companions that he loaded in the truck and took everywhere locally with him.

Paul traveled extensively in his work with Savcoa Contracting where he made many good and lifelong friends.

Paul's greatest pleasure was sitting on the back porch watching all of God's wonderful world of nature – birds, deer, turkeys, cows and horses in the pasture, and even butterflies. He was a kindhearted soul always with a smile for everyone and would do anything for his friends. He was a caretaker at heart. Paul will be greatly missed.

A memorial service will be 2:00 p.m. Sunday, March 9, 2025, at Poston Baptist Church with Pastor Chris Jarman conducting the service. The family will receive friends at the church following the service.

Shared memories and condolences may be sent to the family by selecting Tribute Wall.
