Paul Eugene Williams

Paul's quick wit, hearty laugh, sharp intellect, sound judgment, and gentlemanly ways will be missed by all who knew him.

Paul was born on July 23, 1933, in Kansas City, Kansas, to Art and Vetta Williams, but moved to San Antonio when he was a young child. He graduated from Thomas Jefferson High School in 1951, where he was a member of the football team that won State in '49; attended Texas A&M College, where he was a "Distinguished Student", and graduated from St. Mary's University with a bachelor's degree in Accounting in 1956.

He married Johanna Jody Dalton in 1957 and welcomed the births of daughter, Pam and son, Brad in the 1960s.

In 1966, Paul and two other CPAs established the accounting firm of Thompson, Williams, Biediger, Kastor and Young, from which he retired in 2003. At the time of his death, he was a consultant with the firm.

Paul was a member of the Church of Christ for 52 years, attending San Pedro, Northside, Sunset Ridge, and Oak Hills churches during those years.

He was predeceased by his parents and his two brothers, Lt. Col. James D. Williams of Copperas Cove and Arthur Ray Williams of Houston.

Survivors include his wife of 52 years, Jody; his daughter, Pam Galindo and her husband Raul, of San Antonio; his son, Brad and wife Noelle, of Dallas; and four grandchildren, Hayley and Hannah Galindo and Ethan and Carter Williams.

The family will receive friends beginning at 1 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, November 24, 2009 at Porter Loring on McCullough followed by a service at 2 o'clock.

Interment will be in Mission Burial Park North following the service.
