Larry Williams Obituary

Larry Douglas Williams

February 5, 2026

KINGSPORT - Larry Douglas Williams, 80, of Kingsport, Tennessee went to be with the Lord on February 5, 2026.

For the past three years, Larry has greeted everyone with a "God bless you." He was so happy to be going to heaven to see Jesus, his wife and his family.

After he retired from the carpet business, he became a greeter at Home Depot, where he was admired by his coworkers and customers.

Larry was a veteran of the United States Air Force.

Larry was preceded in death by his father, Arnold Williams and mother, Bonnie Jean Bowers Defriece; and wife, Jackie Hauk Lowe Williams.

Those left to cherish his memory are his stepdaughter, Deborah Lowe McMichael of Winter Park, Florida; sister-in-law, Martha Jane Hauk Jones and brother-in-law, Sam Hauk, both of Kingsport, Tennessee; and several nieces and nephews.

His wishes were to be cremated with no services at this time.

He will be buried at Mountain Home National Cemetery alongside his wife.
