Paul continued to grow his family when he married Geraldine in 1993, adding her two children, Janice Myers-Hollowell and James Santore (Lisa); in 2014 Paul married Carolyn Marie, adding her two children, Jennifer Duffin (Jamie) and John Wallace.

Paul was predeceased by his parents, Reese Franklin, Sr., and Bertha Williamson; wives, Betty Ilean and Geraldine; son, Paul H. Williamson, Jr., grandson, Scott Adam Williamson; brothers, Reese Franklin, Jr., Richard, and David Williamson; and sister, Charlotte Simon.

Graveside commitment service will be held Wednesday the 18th at 12:15pm at Parklawn Memorial Park, 6551 Armistead Avenue, Hampton, VA.

A retired Master Chief and dedicated Republican, Paul greatly enjoyed talking politics. In lieu of flowers, Paul would appreciate you continuing to keep America great and vote Republican, or, if you prefer, make donations to Disabled American Veterans.
