The world has lost a great man! Larry A. Williams, 62, of Palm Coast, Fla., formerly of Slatington, took his final bow June 24, 2019, after a long and hard fought battle with cancer.

He and his wife, Theresa M. (Kocher) Williams, were married 11 years.

Born March 9, 1957, in Slatedale, he was the son of the late Betty Mae (Williams) Fenstermaker.

He always held the Northern Lehigh Community near and dear to his heart.

If there were an organization in need or an event coming up, he was playing a role in its success either as organizer, leader or participant.

His passion for music and theater touched the lives of everyone who knew him.

From the Lehigh Valley to Flagler County, Fla., his talent and dedication to excellence raised the bar of every theater with which he worked.

He and his wife, Terri, were true partners in life, work and love.

His persona was exemplified by his kindness, generosity and humor.

Though our memories will be bittersweet, the stories we have to tell will live on in our hearts.

His deep faith in God has carried him home where he surely has assembled the most spectacular choir of angels.

In addition to his wife, he is survived by sons Ryan K. Williams and his wife, Nicole, of Palm Coast, Fla., Matthew S. Williams and his wife, Katy, of New Tripoli; grandsons Logan, Noah, Hunter and Benjamin; and uncle, William “Billy” Williams and his wife, Brenda, of Germansville.

Family and friends may pay their respects 6-8:30 p.m. Friday in the funeral home.
