 “Nu” as he was affectionately known, has made his peace and won his king crown, at 3:15 P.M. on Monday, September 18, 2023. 

Harold was born on August 4, 1995, to Harold Lee Williams, Jr., and Dralishia Swanique Sam Hill. 

Harold was smooth calm and respectful young man. He had a heart of gold, if he had, you had, but he would hold his money tightly. He was soft hearted and a sweetheart especially with the ones he loved. Harold loved food, and he loved to eat. His favorite food was shrimp stew with eggs and white beans with sausage with smothered pork chops on the side. This was special requested to his grandmother Dorothy to cook it for him. He was quite a jokester, he cracked jokes even if they were corny. He was also very affectionate in his own way. He was not afraid to show love or give love. He was spoiled as many of you know. He was an only child to his mother and boy did he look to be spoiled by everyone, just like his mother had him spoiled. Everyone knew he did not take being told “No” very lightly. His style was like no other. He dressed himself everyday and was very neat and clean. He never lacked hygiene; it was almost in the category of OCD with his body. He enjoyed being with family and having a good time. He also enjoyed spending time to himself or rolling with his best friend of 15 years Javeon Booze. When he sparked a conversation, he had to include his favorite word “perspective” in it. Over the years, he struggled with the loss of his mother and did the best he could to cope without her. He missed her dearly and now he is with her. Harold will be sadly missed by his family and friends but mostly by the person who understood him when nobody did. His love of his life (as he would say) Dalovely Blackwell. “Nu was loved by many, and adored by many, he will truly be missed:
