Willie Lee Sumter Jr.

November 6, 1936 - November 25, 2018

Mr. Willie Lee Sumter, Jr. , was born on November 6, 1936 in Richland County, South Carolina. He was the first child born to the late Willie Lee and Minnie Taylor Sumter, Sr. Willie departed this life Sunday, November 25, 2018 at Palmetto Health Baptist Hospital. “Popcorn”, as he was affectionately known, was a man of many professional trades and worked most of his life helping others in business. He was also a man of many words and could often be known for sharing his views with others. We know he would appreciate your kind thoughts with memories of his conversations. Willie Lee resided at Heartland of Columbia Rehabilitation and Nursing Center. Before his eternal transfer, Willie Lee accepted Christ Jesus as his personal Savior in the presence of his children, Reginald and Regina Sumter. Willie was preceded in death by wife, Elder Vivian Hammond Aiken Sumter; his parents; and a brother, Jake Sumter. Left to cherish fond memories are: his three children, Willie Stanley Lyles and Reginald and Regina Sumter; by adoption, Dr. Del Rosa Flint; Dr. Jacqueline Aiken and Pastor Joseph A. (Selma) Aiken, Jr.; a brother, Lang Sumter; a niece, Elaine Sumter; two grandchildren, April Sumter and Gregory Thomas and one great grandchild. “Popcorn” will always be remembered and never forgotten in the lives of many people that love him still. In your rest Willie Lee Sumter, Jr., we agree with your founded faith in Christ that shall be your guide to your everlasting life with God.
