David Richard Williams

David Richard Williams, Jr., 13, was born January 2, 2008 in Pittsburgh, PA.  He was the beloved son of David Richard Williams, Sr. and Audrey D. Hampton. The Lord called David home on October 25, 2021. He was preceded in death by his paternal grandmother, Betty Williams.  

Dave, as he was affectionately called, attended Minadeo and Sunnyside Elementary School. More recently, he was a student at the Pioneer School. Dave loved music, cheesecake, and plenty of good food. If it had wheels, he claimed it as his own! Jokes were a part of his day; he loved to tell jokes and was a constant jokester; we were playing “would you rather” on the bus he was asked if he would rather be the president or a chicken he responded “chicken.” His auntie Adama, was his heart, and just the mention of her name and hearing her voice brought a beautiful smile to his face. David loved to flirt and steal your phone to take selfies and random photos of whoever was with him. Shaun his older brother was Dave’s protector and constant in his life.

Dave was a long-time member of Envision Blind Sports; part of his summer involved going to camp. In 2019 Envision Blind Summer Sports Camp David won the “effort” award for giving his all at every event. David had such a sweet demeanor with an edge that would make you laugh he wasn’t afraid to test your limits. David was considered one of Envision’s favorite athletes and he was loved and will be missed.

 David is survived by his parents David Richard Williams, Sr. and Audrey D. Hampton; grandmother, Val Warren; siblings, Jayshaun Hampton, Darryn Hampton, Aubrey Sanvelous, Jaiceon Williams, Ava Joy Moore, Yariah Williams, Gianna Williams; aunts, uncles, cousins and a host of people who loved him.
