Wesley Dean Williams

Wesley Dean Williams, 63, of Princeton, passed away Friday, April 10, 2026 at Deaconess Midtown Hospital in Evansville. He was born February 19, 1963 in Fairfield, Illinois to the late Harry Williams Jr. and Carolyn Joyce (Lee) Williams. Wesley worked at Whirlpool for several years, TBIN, and finally Toyota. He was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and earned a certificate after high school in electrical work. He was a jack-of-all trades able to do all the projects at his house himself. If Wesley was watching TV, it would be home renovation shows like, “This Old House”. He appreciated science, reading, and games. He was always learning something new. Wesley loved listening to the Everly Brothers, eating ice cream, especially butter pecan, eating Chinese and Golden Corral, and playing pranks on all his family and friends. He was dearly loved and will be missed beyond measure.

Wesley married his wife, Lucy (Pantig) Williams on March 6, 2004 and she survives in Princeton with their two children, Loryn-An and Benjie Williams. He is also survived by siblings, Michael Wayne Williams of Albion, Illinois, Barry Scott Williams of Lehi, Utah, Todd Allen Williams of Princeton, and Rhonda Banks of Mt. Carmel, Illinois; and half siblings, Dennis Williams of Tennessee, Debbie Seibert of Iowa, Carolyn Sue Estes of Carbondale, Illinois, Diana Grisham of Petersburg, Elizabeth Litherland of Evansville, Judy Williams of Mt. Carmel, and Brian Williams of Princeton.
