My last testamony

Norman K Williams

Please do not concern yourself over my passing. Rest assured that I feel that I have enjoyed a full & fruitful life. I was very blessed to have been born to two very caring & loving parents. My Mother did a superior job of raising me & educating me along the way. She looked after my health & well being and seen to it that I was dressed & fed properly. My father worked hard and seen to it that we were all fed & clothed & had a warm house to live in. He taught us discipline & responsibility. I only graduated from high school, however, at that time I was the only one, who I knew, who did gratuate. I went on to marry a very special person who it turned out was just the person I needed to guide me thro life. She turned out to be very good Mother & housekeeper & family organizer. My time in the service was tough, but unforgettable & very valuable in discipline during later life.

I asked Rose, shortly after I went to work for American Brake Shoe Co & moved to Salt Lake, what she wanted most? She said security. I kept that in mind as I went along for the next 38 yrs & I feel I full filled her wish.

I realized when I was in the service that I had a very special & hard working guardian angel watching over me. at least three times he jerked me back from sure death & shook his finger at me & said don’t do that , you may get killed. Those three were not the times the Germans were trying to kill me. I worked hard all of my life & tried to be responcable. I made some mistakes, that I would change if I had it to do over again, mostly connected with drinking. I know I did to much of that, especially after I retired. Other than that I don’t feel I would change a thing. I lived a long, healthy life & very rewarding. My children turned out better than I could have wished for, thanks to their Mother and I am very happy for their success.

What more could a person possibly ask for? I do not know where I’m going but I sure thank God for what I’ve had.

Love

Dad
