Dakari E. Williams

On September 16, 2020 of Washington Twp.  Age 17.  Beloved son of Bridget Daudier (Yvens) and the late Damani Williams.  Loving brother of Aaliyah Daudier, Edward Alston, Gianna Daudier, Jasmine Daudier and Damani Williams, Jr.  Loving grandson of Cindy Williams, and Willie and Pennie Alston.  He is also survived by his surrogate grandparents Violet and Johnny Woodland.  He is loved by his aunts, uncles, cousins, and many friends.

Dakari was born in Silver Springs, Maryland March 4, 2003.  To know him was to love him.  His spirit was palpable and his smile would light up any room.  He loved spending time with his friends and especially loved playing with baby Aaliyah.  He enjoyed running track and planned to run in college, where he aspired to obtain a degree in business.

Dakari loved cooking for his family and was well known for his steaks on the grill.  On any given summer day, look no further than the pool to find Dakari chilling with his speaker blaring his favorite tunes.

He will be missed by so many, as he had so many friends.  His legacy will reign as his spirit continues to live through all those that loved him.  He will never be replaced and the world is a little emptier without him.

Family and friends are invited to attend his visitation Saturday 8:00-11:00 AM at the Egizi Funeral Home, 119 Ganttown Rd., Washington Twp.  Funeral service 11:00 AM.  Interment, Manahath Cemetery, Glassboro.  In lieu of flowers, donations in Dakari’s memory may be made to a charity of your choice.

Please share memories and condolences with the family.
