He was born in Norfolk, attended Norfolk Public Schools, and was a longtime

He will be remembered as a loving and caring father, grandfather and husband; 
for his strong Christian Faith; for his unselfishness and sociable ways; and for 
his many, many acquaintances. He was a friend to everyone he met.
He is survived by his son, Allen Ayers and Allen’s wife, Becky, of Williamsburg, 
Va.; and by two grandchildren, William and Leigh. His first cousin, Lucille 
Lucido of Hampton, also survives him. His parents, William J. and Betty L.
