Help Us Honor Troy Williams' Final Wish

Donation protected
On December 26th at 11:23 p.m., we lost our dear father, Troy Williams, in a sudden and heartbreaking moment. For 17 years, he bravely fought against Hairy Cell Leukemia, CLL Leukemia, Bone Marrow Cancer, and Liver and Kidney disease. His spirit and resilience inspired all who knew him.

Dad’s last wish was to return to his beloved hometown of New Orleans for his final resting place, where we were displaced from after Hurricane Katrina overtook our city. As his seven devoted children, we are committed to making this wish a reality, but we are facing a steep uphill battle. Due to the unexpected nature of his death and living in Nebraska, the costs of the funeral, flights, and travel to New Orleans exceed our means. There are 15 family members total, many being young children, seven of his children, six grandkids, and two daughters-in-law.

We are reaching out for your support to help us honor our father's memory and say our goodbyes in the place that mattered most to him. Every contribution will be directly applied to our airfare, travel expenses, and funeral arrangements.

Dad was a man of strength, unwavering love, and incredible resilience. Coming together as a family in New Orleans to honor him would carry profound significance for us. No matter the size, every donation brings us closer to fulfilling this final promise.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support during this challenging time.

With heartfelt appreciation,
The Williams Family
