Timothy John Williams

Born in Columbus, Ohio on April 8, 1949. Tim was an Orlando area Florida resident for 45 years.

As a boy in Columbus, Tim was a paper boy, Boy Scout, Olympic Pool main stay & Whetstone Park cliff climber. He was a member of St. John’s Episcopal Church in Worthington, Ohio.

Very athletic, he played baseball and football from a young age through high school. He excelled in track and diving as well

Tim graduated from Whetstone H.S., Columbus, in 1967. After high school Tim volunteered for the Vietnam War and rose to rank of Sergeant in the Air Force.

Upon returning home he earned a B.S. degree in Political Science from Capital University in Columbus.

After moving to the Orlando area in 1977, Tim worked in advertising then followed his love for teaching, teaching American History for Orange County Public Schools.

Tim was a lifelong Ohio State Buckeye football fan and Cleveland and St Louis MLB fan, even setting up the home den as a “stadium”!

Tim was married to the love of his life, Rebecca (Bell) Williams for 25 wonderful years.

They enjoyed trips to the beach for surf fishing, travels back “home” and always watched Buckeye football and Cardinal games together.

Tim loved motorcycles since getting his first Honda 250 at age 16. He loved Harley Davidson bikes and got his first Dyna Glide in 2000. Passionate about riding, he spent many a Saturday morning on rides with his buddies.

He is pre-deceased by his parents, Louise B. and H. John Williams and his brother, Philip B. Herron. Tim is survived by his sister Mary L. and David Harris and many loved nieces, nephews, cousins and in-laws.

Tim will be truly missed by his loving wife, his family and his friends in Clintonville/Columbus and Florida. We will miss that ready smile and quick sense of humor.

May the Lord welcome you and bless you, Tim.

Rest in Peace and Rise in Glory.
