Douglas Lee Williams, Sr.

Remembering Douglas…

Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.

From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed:

lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

~ Psalm 61: 1-2

     It was on Sunday, July 14, 1946, that life was bestowed upon Douglas Lee Williams, Sr. as he was born in Northampton County, North Carolina, to the parentage of the late James Williams and Maryona Benjamin Williams.
