Ricky David Lawson

It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of Ricky David Lawson, who entered eternal rest on November 3, 2023.
Born on March 25, 1961, in Jellico, TN, Ricky spent his life in Williamsburg, Kentucky, bringing joy and laughter to those who had the pleasure of knowing him.
As the famous saying goes, “To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die,” and Ricky’s spirit will live on through the memories we all shared with him.
Ricky is survived by his loving spouse, Rebecca Lawson; and his children, Jessie Lawson, Brittany Lawson, Bobby Hamblin, Danny Mays, Ray Mays, and Jacquelyn Curnutt.
He was a proud grandfather to Cameron Mays and 14 other grandchildren; and a great-grandfather to twelve great-grandchildren. He also leaves behind a large, loving family, sisters, Carolyn (Mac) Rickett, Diana (Larry) Stevens, Kathy (Dave) Powers, Thelma (Arthur) Foley, Connie (Dave) Lambdin, Molly Partin, and Stacey Lawson; brothers, Neddie Mac (Bobbie) Lawson, and David Lawson.
Ricky was preceded in death by his parents, DC and Dora Lawson; and his brothers, Leford, Isom, Neil, and Terry Lawson.
