John W. Williams

John was born at Madigan Hospital in Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Washington on July 15, 1970.

John spent his early years age 1-4 living in Germany and Spain. He also lived in several towns throughout Oregon before settling in Portland.

He graduated in 1988 from Milwaukie High School. He then went on to earn his bachelor's degree in communications at PSU.

While in college, he worked full time for Pacific Northwest Title, which later became First American Title,

He was very dedicated to his job, and worked for the company for 30 years, eventually reaching his way up to Senior Training Manager.

John loved his family, his dogs, and he was an avid reader who loved to travel. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.

John leaves behind his partner of 26 years, Bill Halleran, his mother Mindy Hackett, sister Jennifer Collister, brother Chris Collister, and his canine companion, Chester.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Oregon Humane Society.

There will be a memorial scheduled at a later date.
