WILLIAMS, Bradley Dean

The White Mountain Independent, Show Low, Arizona ~ March 19, 2009 Bradley Dean Williams, 34, of Show Low went home to be with his Lord March 11, 2009. Brad was born to Bob and Cheryl Williams in Tempe July 27, 1974, and moved to the White Mountains in 2001. First and foremost, Brad was a family man. He was happily married to his high school sweetheart, Jill, for 13 years and was a loving father to his sons, Elijah, 11, and Chandler, 10. He was a hard-working contractor who always put everyone ahead of himself. He enjoyed team roping, "cowboying," hunting, coaching sports and spending countless hours in the arena with his wife, sons, friends and family. Brad was respected by the people he knew as being straight up and honest. He will be greatly missed by anyone who had the pleasure of knowing him. It didn't matter if you knew Brad for a day or a lifetime, you will remember him as a kind, generous man who always had a smile on his face. He is survived by his loving wife, Jill, and two sons, Elijah and Chandler; parents Bob and Cheryl Williams; sister Christy Canan; grandparents Homer and Doris Baker; and a very large extended family. "Although you are onto bigger and better things at your new arena above, your family will always keep your legacy alive down here on Earth." Memorial services were held Monday, March 16, at Calvary Baptist Church in Show Low. Black's Mortuary of Show Low handled arrangements.
