ENT 601 SME Interview with Walter Williams; By Curtis Wright

Walter Williams – Owner of William’s Stone Masonry

1. Could you tell me a little bit about yourself?
My name is Walter Williams; I am a 51-year-old man that has been involved in stone masonry for the majority of my life. I was born and raised in Fairview, North Carolina and have always been an athlete. I always try to enjoy life and I like talking to people. I consider myself a hard worker and believe in doing a good job for all customers. My favorite activity is spending as much time with my grandson as I possibly can.

2. Can you tell me how you got involved with Stone Masonry?
When I was 17 I observed some Stone Mason’s laying rock and decided that was a trade I wanted to pursue. I started as a laborer and after 7-8 years I felt that I had mastered the trade. The trade is nothing but hard work. When I originally started there were no stone yards to pick up your rocks, you had to go out into the mountains and dig them up, carry them to the truck and haul them to the job site. When you’re doing a large home it takes a lot of rocks, 1 ton covers 30-35 square feet. I like the trade because it keeps me in shape and I love the thrill of heights. I had a mentor named Raymond Pressley who not only taught him the trade but inspired me and drove me to success.
