Henderson W. Williams

On the 25th of July 2016, Henderson Walter Williams aka "Buster" went home to be with the Lord. "As the oldest of the siblings, Buster understood his responsibitlity to set and be the best example he could be for his younger brothers and sisters, especially after the sudden passing of their father in 1980. For him, it was family first above all else. He expressed said love in thoughtful and meaningful ways, even when he was dealing iwht his own health stgruggles. He loved his motorcycle and the motorcycle club and to experience the open road on two wheels. His bike travels took him up and down the East Coast, something he talked about often and enjoyed immensely. Yet, when all was said and done, Buster would always come home; for that was where his heart and soul rested. And now he can rest peacefully in the arms of our God and be reunited with his Father, Mother and Brother Kenny for all eternity. Until we meet again.As the "go to" guy for the family, he was the person who provided oversight of family issues known as the "Suffolk Report". As the organizer of the family hiliday trips, he was a source ofjoy and humor during the family holiday gatherings. His famous line of "Gimme some of EVERYTHING you got" will echo throughout th family gatherings for ages.He was preceded in death by his father, Henderson Walter Wiliams, Sr. and his mother Theresa Quistnor Jones Williams.
