He is preceded in death by his parents, William and Anna Faye (Young) Williams and his brother, William Don, all of Rensselaer, MO.

Jim was born on May 2, 1943 in Rensselaer, MO. He married Norma Stuckey, on July 8, 1984. Jim worked for 40 years with the Hannibal Gas Company where he retired in 2005. Jim was an avid hunter and fisherman. He enjoyed the outdoors with his family and loved spending time with his grandchildren, Dalton Williams, Hunter Williams, Jennifer (Lain) Servis, Levi Shinn and Madison Shinn and one great-grandchild Caine Servis along with his many nieces and nephews.

Jim was accomplished at hunting and fishing and had many, many successful days in the woods or on the water. He was a generous individual who would drop everything to help when others needed him. He was an active and dedicated member of the Southside Baptist Church in Hannibal, MO.

The family finds peace in Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me." and Psalms 56:3, "What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee".

Pallbearers will be Kenny Shinn, Brian Hawkins, Hunter Williams and Dalton Williams.
