From the Associated Press — Roy Levy Williams, a former auto executive who also worked for three Michigan governors, has died at his suburban Detroit home. He was 83. Williams’ family says Monday in a release that he died February 11 in Grosse Pointe Woods following a brief illness. They said Williams served as an aide under governors William Milliken and John Engler, both Republicans, and Democrat James Blanchard. He later started a management consulting firm and spent nearly two decades with the then-Chrysler Corp. where he oversaw community relations. He also was president and chief executive of the Detroit Urban League and a member of the Detroit Board of Police Commissioners.
