David was born on April 28, 1948, in Salem, Ohio to the late David Neal Williams, Sr. and Anita Mae Armstrong Williams. His family would relocate to Jackson, Tennessee, where he grew up. Following his high school graduation, he enlisted in the United States Air Force. From there, he served in the Southeast Asia/Vietnam conflict while stationed at Ubon Royal Thai Air Force Base.
