Wallace “Ray” Williams of Goochland, Virginia, passed away peacefully on Dec. 18, 2021 after a short illness. Ray was born in Gloucester, Virginia, on Aug. 4, 1962 to the late Robert Sr. and Ida Sue Williams. In addition to his parents, Ray was preceded by his sister, Nancy Yarborugh, and his fur babies, “Chase” and “Crickett.” Ray was a free spirit; he loved riding his motorcycle, playing golf, keeping his lawn manicured and most of all hitting the bowl. He loved his sister Gail to the moon and back. She became his special angel for 15 years and was by his side until the end. Ray was survived by his loving sisters, Gail (Billy) Kellum, Teresa (Dennis) Green; brother, Robert (Penny) Williams Jr., all of Gloucester. He is also survived by nieces, Tammy, Laurie Ann, Angie and Susan; nephews, Derick, Paul, Steven, Chris, Jeffrey and Robbie. He also loved his great-niece and -nephew, Lauren and Thomas Hall. Nancy Kellum was a good friend and with him till the end. Fly high, my brother, on that highway to heaven, to meet all that have gone ahead and wait for all you have left behind with broken hearts.
