He worked at the Lone Star Casino as a cook and at the Crow Creek C-Store as a cashier. He worked up until his health forced him to quit working.
He is survived by two brothers: Trevor Williams of Fort Thompson, SD, and Londell Blaine of Chamberlain, SD; one sister, Doreece St. John of Fort Thompson, SD; numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews, too numerous to mention; and “Gram” Darlene Williams.
He is preceded in death by his parents; two grandpas; one grandma; three uncles; four aunts; and many cousins and relatives, too many to mention.
We will miss you dearly, Timmy. Toksa Aké.
