Posted

Kenneth L Williams, a cherished family man and esteemed member of Marshalltown, Iowa and Eureka Springs, Arkansas communities, passed away peacefully on July 27, 2025, at venerable age of 83. Born on September 24, 1941, to the late William and Ruth Williams, Kenneth’s life was one of dedication, love, and enduring optimism.

Ken’s journey began in Marshalltown, where he was raised alongside his brother, Leon Williams, and where he later met and married the love of his life, Sharon. Their union was blessed with three children: Bret, Mark and Kim Williams. Ken was a beacon of wisdom and joy for his six grandchildren and three great-grandchildren, whose lives he touched with his gentle spirit and endless support. Ken enjoyed coaching youth sports, gardening, building things out of wood, fishing and attending music festivals. A private family memorial service will be held at a later date. Memorial donations may be made to the Marie and John Carr Hospice Home, 1201 NE Legacy Parkway, Bentonville, AR 72712 or to ECHO (Eureka Christian Health Outreach) 4045 E. Van Buren, Eureka Springs AR 72632. Arrangements under the direction of Nelson Funeral Service. Online condolences may be sent to the family at nelsonfuneral. com.
