Phil was a lifelong resident of Anderson who knew every road like the back of his hand. He loved the peace and serenity of his house on Broadway Lake. He was an avid Clemson fan. He was known for his outgoing personality and love of people and couldn't go anywhere that he didn't know someone. Phil was a generous and kindhearted man. Most of all, he loved his family and the times they spent together brought him the most joy.

He is survived by his sons, Greg Williams (Adrian) and Chris Williams (Wendy); daughter, Anne Schwirian (Skip); and grandchildren, Lindsey Williams and Justin Williams.
