Taking to the app’s Stories feature, Ellie shared even more memories of her father, who was an established actor.
In the memoriam for her father, she wrote, ‘Miss you every single second.’
She also uploaded old photos from her dad’s time exploring aviation. One image showed the Hair star standing in front of a yellow aircraft.
Ellie, who has a brother named Gill Williams, said about their parent: ‘My dad is the biggest badass. He has over 12,000 hours of flying time.’
It was added that Treat ‘flew everything from a small Piper Club to his old T-6 Texan WWII trainer.’
The grieving daughter also used her dad’s birthday as an opportunity to post a scene from his famous 1979 film Hair.
She called the film ‘one of my dad’s most iconic roles’ and said ‘You’re so f***ing cool it’s actually ridiculous.’

In early August, less than one month after he died, a Medical Examiner’s Office determined that ‘Mr. Williams died of severe trauma and blood loss as a result of the crash,’ said the Vermont State Police in a statement.
‘Mr. Williams suffered critical injuries in the crash and subsequently was pronounced dead at Albany Medical Center in Albany, New York,’ the message shared.
Police also issued ‘a citation on a charge of grossly negligent operation with death’ to 35-year-old Ryan Koss of Vermont — the driver involved in the fatal crash.
Koss voluntarily turned himself and was subsequently processed and released, though he said the charges were unwarranted.
