Ford Williams becomes Eagle Scout

Ford Williams recently earned his Eagle Scout rank and was honored at a Court of Honor ceremony in October.

Williams, a junior at Mountain Brook High School, is a member of Troop 53 at St. Peter’s Anglican Church. Williams is a member of the Order of the Arrow and earned 21 merit badges as a scout.

For his Eagle Scout project, Williams replaced a privacy fence for two adults with autism spectrum disorder. The adults live in a house managed by Glenwood on the Southside of Birmingham. Williams took down the fence and constructed a new one to help provide safety and privacy for the residents.

Williams plays on the varsity football team at MBHS and is a member of Key Club and Junior Civitan Club. He is also an acolyte at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Turner B. Williams.
