Penn was born on January 18, 1963 in Ft. Ord, CA to Penn and Roberta (Murray) Williams. He was 3 when the family moved to Pierre where he attended Washington Elementary School and graduated from T.F. Riggs in 1981. He worked for the City of Pierre in the Parks and Recreation Department and Hillsview Golf Course. His hobbies included fishing, hunting and softball with so many good friends. He kept up a wonderful garden and enjoyed golfing with family and friends. So many people will miss him driving by on his Cushman, barefoot, with a honk and a wave. He loved watching Streyle play soccer and most of all he loved being a dad.
He is survived by his daughter Streyle Williams (Ronnie Boe) of Sioux Falls, step children; Luke Dokken of Pierre, and Ryane Oliva of Rapid City. He is also survived by his parents Penn and Roberta Williams of Pierre; brother Robert Williams and sister Patty Williams both of Pierre; brother-in-law Brian Mews; nieces and nephews: Brady, Mariah, Tessa, Jesse, Talia, Ashley, Spencer and Leslie.
He is preceded in death by his sister Kathy Mews and his grandparents.
