John (Johnny) Kinney Williamson was born in San Marcos, on Dec. 31, 1934, to John C. (Buster) and Alice Louise Williamson. He went to join his Heavenly Father on Saturday, Aug. 23, 2014, after a long battle with Parkinson’s disease.

Johnny was a fingerprint specialist with the Austin Police Department for 28 years, and retired in 1989.

Johnny is survived by his wife Janice, his children Laura and Roman and John and Ofelia, and his grandchildren Ashley Anderson, Brittany Santos, Chelsea Santos, Errica Offutt and Jake Williamson. He is also survived by his brothers, Leroy and Roger, as well as numerous nieces and nephews.

Johnny was preceded in death by both his parents and his oldest brother, George.

Johnny and his wife Janice enjoyed fifty years of marriage. He loved fishing, hunting and playing dominoes. He enjoyed gardening, which yielded many fresh vegetables for his family and neighbors. He also loved to barbecue, and was known for his brisket. He loved to watch football. He rooted for the Longhorns and loved the UT fight song.

Johnny’s passion was his family. He loved his children and truly embraced being a grandpa. He took time to teach them simple math and read books to them. He would take them to play at the park, eat ice cream, as well as tossing and kicking a football in the yard. He enjoyed watching his grandchildren involved in choir, band, and dance activities.

In lieu of flowers, please make donations to: Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research, Church Street Station, P.O. Box 780, New York, NY 10008, (800) 708-7644.
