My deepest sympathy to Melissa and family for the loss of Jeff. I worked with him on my claims over the years. He was always so kind and helpful,  truly a wonderful person. I pray that God keeps you in the palm of His loving and compassionate hands during this difficult time. 

"There are two types of people in this world: people like me and people who want to be like me." -- Jeff Williams, 2008. 

The world will miss you terribly, my friend. I hope you are enjoying the show from above. 

Jeff you will be truly missed. May God keep your family filled with love at this time. Prayers for your family.

Prayers to the family. Thank you Jeff for always being there to help me, when I needed something. Don't forget to talk about your hole in one in heaven. Rest in peace.

My deepest sympathies go out to the entire Williams family.  Jeff and I grew up together on Cynthia Street.  Our moms were best friends living only 8 houses away, but they would always talk on the phone for hours to each other; and as kids, Jeff and I tried to figure out how to make rickety old forts out of spare wood and shingles in our backyard….they all fell apart,  and we’d start all over again!  I remember our poker party sleep overs with a bunch of our buds, and I have no idea how Jeff ended up with all our money; he was a shark among us minnows!  He was a great friend growing up, and I regret losing touch with him in our later years.  

It didn’t matter what event or get together Willi always made it BETTER! Just his presence he just had a special way of making everyone Laugh and have a good time!!He will be missed Greatly by so many!💔

Brother, We just seen each other Saturday!! Like WOW!!! The memory of you will never be forgotten! You were and will always be my brother!

I'll see you again one day OG!!

A Classic Throw  Back Me and Will Wrapping up Jobby  Nooner🤘❤️My Brother!!

Our annual Father’s Day golf outing I will always cherish this final day we spent together! Love you Brother!! Miss you Always💔

Praying for the family, you have my condolences 🙏 

Jeff Williams - a true mentor in the industry. I had the pleasure to spend the last 10 years learning from this one of a kind veteran. XOXO you will be deeply missed.

I was absolutely stunned to hear that Jeff had exited this physical world.   We had just seen and spoken to him when he attended our recent Open House.
My most heartfelt sympathy to his loved ones.  I pray that your memories of Jeff will carry you through this terrible loss.
Jeff was an icon in the Restoration Industry, he was well known and a kind and generous Man.   
We are going to miss you Jeff, rest easy on the other side.

How do you put words together that express all of the lives a person can touch? There are countless people who’s life he touched in some way. Whether it was to buy lunch for the entire Team in the office, the Crew hard at work on a job site or take care of the family and friends that surrounded him…..he knew to thank people for helping him and to make sure their efforts did not go unnoticed. 

Now there’s a shock and punch to my gut, a hole in my heart and a lump in my throat. I am having a very difficult time processing that Jeff Williams, my coworker of 9 years, is not here to laugh with me anymore. 

We started off as two coworkers who were competitive and striving to be the best…
We had been through so much….years later we grew to know each other and learned we were just two people doing our best each day. 
A friendship was made. 

I will truly miss this guy as he won’t be able to laugh with me. 

Rest in Heaven Jeff.  You were one of a kind with which there are now big shoes to fill.  I know they will never be filled because it’ll be impossible. 
We all love you and will miss you.  

White Boy Willie.....
  My heart hurts trying to put my feelings into words. So many childhood and adult memories, laughs, shenanigans and even a few arguments over the many years. I will forever miss your dry, sarcastic humor and quick wit. Your ability to make people laugh was absolutely second to NONE! The only comfort I can take is knowing the reunion at Heavens Gate is a Glorious homecoming for you in God Kingdom. 
My deepest, heartfelt prayers of peace and comfort to Melissa, Amanda, Alex and to all Jeff's friends and family. Rest Easy, brother, until I see you again on the other side. Hug our crew tightly and save me a seat by the band 
Love ya Forever

I was lucky enough to have gotten to have played softball with Jeff (Willy) back some years ago.  He was our pitcher and a really good one at that.  He had a great soul and always knew how to get people in a better mood and smiling.  He had such a great laugh.  Reading through the long list of comments here and on social media it is obvious he touched and impacted people in every aspect of his life.  My condolences go out to his close friends and family.   I know he will be missed.

Jeff, i will miss you.  You had to little time, however you made the most of it. Always positive never a cross word about anyone!
GOD SPEED!!

Thank you my friend for the many shared childhood and young adult memories….
We have laughed so hard together that we’ve cried.  We have made up rhymes with no reason, but they made sense to us and we laughed for hours, days, weeks and throughout the years over the same made up material. The fun times camping, singing, traveling and even your visit to Houston, TX with Marky. I will miss you my funny, charming, loving dear friend…. You will be greatly missed & always remembered deep in my heart & soul. 

May the Peace, LoVe, Tranquility, Prosperity and the Force be with you always and forever my brother…. We will drink from the Chalice a toast to you.  (written by: Judy, Willie and Paul)


I met Jeff through the restoration industry. Jeff was a great guy and always willing to help when in a pinch. Prayers and condolences to him and his family during this difficult time. 

Melissa, you and Jeffrey have been such nice neighbors.  Dave and I are so sorry for your loss.  Please let us know if there is anything we can do to help you and your family.

This really sucks. I'm so sorry to Melissa and Alex and the rest of the family. 
He was an awesome man and obviously too good for this world.

What's Jackie gonna do without her Jack...
Eating a chocolate caramel throwback curly whirly will never be the same.

I know you ‚Mike, Tim and my Dad are up there enjoying the Lions win football games.
Give lots of hugs.

I will miss you Jeff
