To: Paxton, Bonnie & Lovell's entire Family,

I remember Lovell was ALWAYS there (for his family). Whenever I was at Paxton and Bonnie's or the shop or wherever it was...he was there. 

If he wasn't at a gathering in person, you
would hear him saying hello over the
phone. 

What a great show of tight knighted love.

His devotion to his family was clear. A watchmen (like in the Bible).
He demonstrated that he loved and cared.

To his children and grandchildren, stay close. 

Get to know Jesus and KNOW that Jesus loves you. Receive Jesus in your heart. Make Jesus Lord over your life. He is merciful! 

Honor your father's legacy of love.

Remember,  there is no sorrow heaven cannot heal.

***1 Thessalonians 4:13-18... 13 Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. 14 For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. 15 According to the Lord’s word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. 16 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. 18 Therefore encourage one another with these words.

God bless you!
Chastity ♥️😇🙏🏽

I just remember Mr Williams always letting me come to hang out in the castle with my best friend Doobie. May his soul rest in paradise.

This isn’t really a memory but more of a thank you. A thank you to this whole family that let me stay with them so i could attend a highschool I wasn’t in the district for. Letting me stay kept me out of trouble and they always expected good grades and good behavior. Mr. and Mrs. Williams treated me like their own and i will never forget that. I guess my favorite memory would be seeing him whoop chris all around the kitchen for saying he had a problem. He let him know who really had the problem that night lol. You will be greatly missed, but the beautiful thing is you are reunited with your love and that is something special. 

We drank and laughed with family on Fremont 

Our condolences to the Williams family! Praying that God give you comfort, strength, peace and that He heal each and every one of your hearts in Jesus name. Amen 🙏🏼  

Love  Always

At the heart of every family are the generations of people--the you, me and WE-- the blood, the history and the legacy that lays and leaves a foundation upon which we embark upon our individual and collective journeys through time. I’ve come to find that those moments significantly define us and in that regard, I am more than thankful for the kinship of our FAMILY. This blood within and between us is quite thick in both the scientific and metaphysical realms. Our roots run deep and our branches stretch further than mere eyes can see for we truly love our FAMILY, exclusive of none, inclusive of everyone.  In honor of all of the DAVIS and FRANKLIN branches, we raise our collective voices, past, present and promising future, in reverence of our beloved Lovell G. Williams. We assemble our reflections here to say, 
“THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR LIFE WITH US.”
Forever loved you shall and will always be! Much love to the entire family.

There are so many memories , memories that would take a lifetime to speak about, just like Lovell lived a lifetime and one of our memories was Lovell and Jo always being faithful at Beyond the veil ministries international. The church called him uncle because he was everybody’s Uncle, , Brother, dad, and more importantly an awesome member of our church . he would fuss at you when you did something wrong he would Kinda love on you when you did right. Everybody loved him he was so faithful and kind I personally believe that he’s got a special place in heaven to barbecue and cook some of his awesome recipes. I personally remember walking next-door to get food because he was barbecuing I had not cooked yet and so he was kind enough to send food over to make sure my husband and I had eaten . I think one of the greatest memories of all was when we were able to ordain brother Lovell Williams as an elder of the church. Oh how he took that so seriously .. you’ll be missed Lovell,  and you are so loved , God bless you thank you for sharing Jamal and the rest of your boys with us and above all YOUR life and LOVE

Mr. Williams (Lovell) it is with deep sadness of your passing that I write this. You were my older brother from another mother. I did three cross country tips but the best one was when you and I did it last summer we laughed all the way from California to Chicago and then we laughed from Chicago back to California.  It was a spiritual experience. I will always remember driving through that storm in Montana and you saying relax everything is in God's hand. Thank You for being my brother and my friend!
