In Loving Memory of Donald Lee Williford
Donald Lee Williford, born on November 13, 1948, in South Pittsburg, TN, passed away tragically on October 30, 2023, at the age of 74. He was a beloved brother, friend, and passionate mechanic.
Donald had a deep love for cars and was always eager to showcase his collection at various car shows and cruise ins. In his earlier years, he enjoyed the thrill of racing rail buggies and supported his brother Claude in his drag races. Throughout his life, Donald's dedication and expertise in mechanics led him to a fulfilling career as an automotive mechanic, working for Liner's Phillips 66 for an impressive 35 years.
Born to the late Claude and Fannie Mae Williford, Donald was also preceded in death by his half-brother, Mark Bearden. He is survived by his siblings: Ruby Higdon of Resaca, GA; Kathleen DeFriese of Georgetown, TN; Anna Ruth McMahan; Claude Williford; and Barrion Williford (Debbie). He also leaves behind his beloved "adopted daughter," Tisha Liner Hitson, as well as numerous nieces, nephews, extended family members, and cherished friends.
