It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Joe Williams. Joe had a heart for the Montevallo community and worked diligently to support the work of the library. He served as a Foundation Board Member, Treasurer, Chair of the Finance Committee and founding member of the Backyard BookFest. Please join us in sending condolences to his family and friends during this time. His presence will be greatly missed by so many. We celebrate his life and contributions.

Celebrate the life of Joseph Williams, leave a kind word or memory and get funeral service information care of Rockco Funeral Home.
