Read More	Richard "Dick" Williams, age 70, of Philip, died Sunday morning, July 10, 2005 at the Hans P. Peterson Memorial Hospital in Philip. Richard Leo "Dick" Williams was born June 6, 1935, in Philip, South Dakota, the son of Robert Theodore "Ted" Williams and Camilla (Becak) Williams. In the early 1940s he went to live with his uncle and aunt, Edgar and Tressie Williams, after his mother's death. He grew up and received his education in the Philip area. During his school years, he began farming and ranching with his uncle and aunt. He graduated from Philip High School in 1955. In 1958, he purchased a well-drilling machine, with which he worked in the summer. During the winter he went to work in California in a welding shop. In the early 1960s, Dick returned to Philip, where he worked on the ranch. Dick was united in marriage to Kay Fortune on August 8, 1966. They made their home on the ranch he grew up on, and in 1970 purchased the ranch from Edgar and Tressie. In 1987, Dick expanded his operation by purchasing the Alan Smith ranch south of Kadoka, on the White River. Throughout his life, Dick taught his family to work hard and how to stretch a dollar. He loved to play cards and dance almost as much as he loved to work. Dick was a member of the South Dakota Stockgrowers Association, R-Calf, and a member of the Bad River Dance Club. Grateful for having shared his life include his wife Kay of Philip; three sons Paul Williams of Philip, Mark Williams and his wife Jayme of Kadoka, and Ross Williams and his wife Janice of Philip; three daughters Tina Williams of Kadoka, Kari Martinez and her husband Griff of Casper, Wyoming, and Jodi Williams and special friend Dana Kerns of Philip; fourteen grandchildren; his step-mother Mary Williams of Philip; six half-brothers Jack Williams and his wife Kathy of Billings, Montana, Tom Williams of Philip, Don Williams and his wife Peggy of Rapid City, Mike Williams of Philip, Bruce Williams of Sioux Falls, and Galo Williams and his wife Sheryl of Red Bluff, California; one sister Suzanne Lewison and her husband Larry of Hurley, South Dakota; a sister-in-law Bea Williams of Missoula, Montana; several nieces and nephews; and a host of other relatives and friends. Dick was preceded in death by his mother Camilla Williams; his father Ted Williams; one brother Robert Dean Williams; his aunt and uncle Edgar and Tressie Williams; and a great-granddaughter Kaya Lynn Huling. Interment was in the Masonic Cemetery, Philip. Rush Funeral Home of Philip is in charge of arrangements.
