The first two hours are for friends and family; the second two hours are for law enforcement. Williams' family requested the burial service remain private.

Republican Gov. Chris Christie and Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno are expected to attend the services.

The 31-year-old Williams, of Egg Harbor Township, was responding to reports of an erratic driver in Millville on Monday night when a motorist crossed the median and struck Williams' vehicle head-on.
