Johnny Williams RIP - Page 3

Johnny was one of the first people to walk over and say hi back when I started racing. In the early days we traveled and raced together. My fondest memory was at an IHRA Race locally. Johnny stayed at my house and at dinner, we joked that we would see each other in the final. Low and behold, we did. He was just as happy seeing his friends win and would always be the first to say Congrats!Johnny always achieved a lot with limited resources and typically was the first to help another racer in need. Johnny Williams never experienced a day in which he did not feel blessed!

The racing community has clearly lost one of the heart and souls of grass roots racing. Prayers and thoughts to Johnny's family whom he was so very proud of.

Godspeed my friend!

We will certainly miss Johnny driving the Cajun Nightmare, one of the coolest stockers of all time. Not only was Johnny always smiling, his quick wit and humor always had us smiling whenever we were around him.

RIP Johnny and our sincerest condolences to his family.

I always enjoyed chatting with Johnny and talking about different Olds combos, I have a pic of both of our cars sitting in the paint shop, RIP Big Guy.

I had the pleasure of pitting next to Johnny at the Joliet Nationals years ago. Awesome individual who was always willing to lend his advice and experience. RIP, Johnny.
