Jack "PoPo" Williams Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Jack “PoPo” Williams, of Laurie, passed away Saturday, June 23, 2018. He was born December 27, 1943, to Carl and Lorrie Walters Williams. In his younger years, Jack grew up dining on squirrel and rabbit which he, his Dad and brothers hunted in the Idabel, OK areas. Jack spent his career in the oil and gas business finishing as a natural gas inspector. His lack of modern day plumbing in the 40’s, and growing up in a rural community filled the rest of his life with stories for all of us that would hear them. The times and conditions in which he grew up taught him to be a great hunter and fisherman, but furthermore, it gave him a deep sense of family. He carried that with him into his retirement years, which he spent in Laurie, MO. He was an avid fan of NASCAR racing, sporting events, and playing cards. He made the best fried chicken on Saturday nights, which he cooked while enjoying a cold 4:00pm “Energy Drink” of Canadian Mist. He is survived by his beautiful and loving wife of 49 years Rose, daughter Terri (Mitch), sons Brian & Dennis, as well as granddaughter Amber, grandson Tim (Donna), great-grandson Thomas, and his favorite great-granddaughter Emma who loved sharing ice cream with him. He is also survived by three sisters, Shirley Huffman (John) of Edmond, OK, Gail Rhoades of Idabel, OK, and Sharon Helms (Mark) of Idabel, OK, and brother Tony Williams (Louise) of West Columbia, TX. Jack was preceded in death by his parents Carl & Lorrie, brother James Carl Williams, and granddaughter Nichole. Supporters of Jack’s are welcome to make donations to Pheasantsforever.org Cremation arrangements are under the direction and care of the Kidwell-Garber Laurie/Sunrise Beach Chapel.
