Terrence D. Williams

Terrence D’Angelo Williams was born on December 1, 1988, in Columbia, South Carolina, the beloved son of Sharon W. Canzater and Rudolph Jackson. He departed this earthly life to be with the Lord on Saturday, May 30, 2026.

“Lunch,” as he was affectionately called by family and friends, was educated in the public schools of Richland School District One, attending W. J. Keenan High School. He later completed the requirements to receive his GED. His love for trucks encouraged him to pursue and obtain his Commercial Driver’s License. He was employed with  Republic Services.

Lunch was known for his big personality, gift of gab, and contagious smile. He lived true to his name by always thinking of his next meal. His four children were his pride and joy. He went to great lengths to ensure his children knew how much he loved and valued them. He had a love for fast cars; he especially loved “Donks” and muscle cars. He was laid back, but whenever he stepped outside, he was dressed to impress. He was Mr. Ralph Lauren Himself.

Terrence was preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Haywood and Mary Connor; paternal grandparents, Ruldolph and Bessie Jackson; maternal great-grandmother, Ella R. Williams; favorite auntie, Janie Mae Shell, and his cousin, Bernard Kennedy.

Terrence is survived by his adoring children, Malaia, Farrell, Syn’Sier, and Shilo Williams; his fiancée, Sierra Patrick-Williams; his loving mother, Sharon (Jason) Canzater of Columbia, SC, and father, Rudolph Jackson of Columbia, SC; his devoted brother, Tyrus (Jessica) Williams; and his sister, Ti’Shawvay (Richard) Branham, all of Columbia, SC; five nieces and nephews, his best friend since elementary school, Danie (Kimesha) Baskett;  a host of aunts, uncles, cousins, and other loving relatives and dear friends, all of whom will miss him dearly.
