He is survived by his children Terence, Melinda (Federick), and William (Cecile); grandchildren Xavier (Anthonia), Drew, Gabrielle, Daniel, Laila, and Donovon; great-grandchild Iretunde; and many beloved nieces, nephews, cousins, and godchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents, two sisters, and brother.

William lived ninety-three years filled with faith, love, and service. His affirmations, faith in Christ, and devotion to family and community remain his enduring legacy.

The remains are currently entrusted to Parker Funeral Home in Rock Hill, South Carolina.
