HUBBARD — Lynn E. Williams, 74, died Monday, Oct. 28, 2019, at Bayfront Health, Punta Gorda, Fla.
He was born May 21, 1945, in Youngstown, a son of Earl L. and Dorothy Worsley Williams. Mr. Williams served with the Army Reserves and was an engineer for CSX Railroad for 36 years, retiring in 2006. Lynn coached Little League baseball for more than 15 years. He enjoyed fishing, camping, boating and waterskiing, and if you were brave enough to get on an inner tube, he would try to knock you off and say, “How do you like me now?” Lynn would also say, “I can’t wait until tomorrow, because I get better looking every day!” His favorite joke to tell was “The New Blue Cheer” and he loved to tell stories about his adventures with Davy Crockett back in the day.
He leaves his wife, the former Linda Vespasian, whom he married April 30, 1966, and again April 30, 1998; three daughters, Lori (Dave) Bell of South Carolina, Wendy (Bill) Greenawalt of Masury and Shannon (Brian) Waite of Hubbard; and Kim Pursell of Tennessee, who was like a fourth daughter to him; a brother, Paul Williams; a sister, Carol Ann (Jim) Pagley of Hubbard; five grandchildren, David (Christina), Casey (boyfriend Ken), Krysta (fiance Angel), Karli, Stephen (fiance Rachael); Melissa (boyfriend Billy), who was like a granddaughter; and Jared, who was like his grandson; and nine great-grandchildren.
Lynn was preceded in death by his parents; a sister, Doris and her husband, Howard “Dink” Leyshon; and a grandson, Timothy Waite.
Lynn’s final resting place will be in Hubbard Union Cemetery.
