In Loving Memory Of Theodore Williams
Theodore Williams, 76, of Hudson, Florida, passed away suddenly at his home on February 10, 2026.
Born in Endicott, New York, Theodore carried the values of his roots throughout a life defined by family and simple joys. He was the beloved son of the late Harold and Marion “Buck” Williams.
A devoted family man, Theodore’s legacy is carried on by his two daughters, Cindy Harder (Brad) and Kristine Knapp (Kenny). His role as “Grandpa” was his proudest title, bringing immense joy to his grandchildren: Anna, Adam, Austin, and Victoria McCreary (Justin). His heart was further warmed by three great-grandchildren, Adalyn, Elliott, and Emmett.
He is survived by his brother, Harold Williams Jr., and sister, Patricia Illsley, and was predeceased by his sister, Nancy L. Hilliker. In his later years, Theodore found companionship with Anne, who was faithfully by his side, along with his cherished dog, Axel.
Theodore found peace at Cayuga Lake, happiness in Sunday NASCAR races, and purpose in tinkering with cars and sharing life’s stories with his grandsons. His steady presence, warm spirit, and deep love for his family will be profoundly missed.
A summer Celebration of Life will be held for family and friends. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in his memory to the American Diabetes Association (ADA). Theodore’s memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew him.
