Casting Crowns Former Drummer Andy Williams Is Resting in the Arms of His Savior

July 12, 2021 by Staff

Casting Crowns lead signer Mark Hall shared on Instagram Friday July 9, 2021, that their former drummer Andy Williams passed away at the age of 49, in the early morning hours around 1 a.m.

Hall shared a post from Williams’ wife Kelly which said the injuries Williams suffered from his motorcycle accident on June 27, 2021, took too much of toll on his body, although he fought the good fight.

Kelly told all those following their Gofundme page that God had answered prayers, saying, “While we mourn that Andy isn’t here with us, and that we didn’t get to witness the miracle we longed for here on earth, all of our prayers were answered. He is healed, he is awake and we believe that he is more alive today than he has ever been.”

“We celebrate that Andy is in the arms of his Savior and we are grateful for the memories and laughter that Andy brought to all who knew him,” Kelly said, thanking everyone for their prayers, support, unending love.

Please keep the Williams family in your prayers.
