Kenneth D. Williams Jr. passed away Feb. 25, 2021, at his home in Old Forge, PA, after a battle with esophageal cancer.

Born in Scranton, PA, he was the son of the late Kenneth D. Williams Sr. and the late Marie Estelle Williams (Haser). Ken graduated from Old Forge High School in 1978.

Ken loved camping, music and working on his home. Ken, an avid supporter of NEPA's local music scene, booked shows for local bands in the 1980s. He built many parts of his family's home with his own hands and creative vision.

He is survived by his children: Michael and Carly Williams; his loving girlfriend of six years: Patricia Schmidt (Iliff); several cousins; his faithful dog, Charlie; and his "grandcat," Mitten.

Arrangements were made under the care and direction of Simplicity Cremation Care of NEPA.
