John was born in Wilmington, son of Peggy Payson and the late John Alden Williams. He was a graduate of McKean High School. John worked for an industrial printing company for several years. Recently, he worked in construction in Lewes, DE for Garcia and Sons.
John was bigger than life itself at times and he was loved by everyone he met. He enjoyed hunting and fishing with family and friends. He enjoyed a tattoo or two, but most of all he loved spending time with his friends who were a part of his street car racing passion. His “Purple People Eater” was hard to miss.
Simply put, Big John loved his dog Diamond.
