Mary Ann Williams

Mary Ann Williams To all my friends and family, our beautiful Aunt Mary Ann got up yesterday morning and made a decision! On this Sunday morning November 22, 2015, she decided not to go to church and listen to the Pastor preach about God! She decided to go hear it in person straight from him. She left this world at 7:00 am. She was 93 1/2 years old. Still sharp as a tack in the mind but her body was failing her! She had arthritis in her hands and knees very bad, her hearing was bad, the loss she felt the most was her eye sight, not being able to read her bible. She was the last one of her immediate family to leave! What a wonderful family reunion that had to be. Her viewing will be Tuesday evening 5-7 pm and her Funeral Wednesday morning at 10 am at Griffin-Roughton Funeral Home in Corsicana 1530 N. 45th St. Services by Pastor Gary Johnson of Calvary Worship Center. Aunt Mary had no natural children of her own, however she was a Mother to many. She is survived by Nieces and Nephews; Robbie and Ronnie Lee of Corsicana, Annie and Carl Atchley of Corsicana, Robert and Sue Wiggins of Mildred, Mary (Wiggins) Lewis of Corsicana, Katherine and Michael Young of Red Oak, Linda Webb of Grand Prairie, David and Tamela Stanley of Mabank, James Stanley of Corsicana, Polly (Stanley) and family of Corsicana, Joyce and Ron Kaminsky of Oakwood, Minnie (Stanley) of Oakwood, Molly (Stanley) and family of Palestine. 40 great nieces and nephews, 28 great great nieces and nephews, 38 great great great nieces and nephews, 5 great great great great nieces and nephews. Pallbearers will be Michael Young, Allen Ford, David Stanley, Jimmy Boyd, Michael Washburn, James Thomas. I had a long conversation with Aunt Mary, Saturday. She had been taken to the hospital twice in the past 2 1/2 weeks. She said " I am so tired and can hardly wait to go home to be with my Lord. Yet I want to stay with all of yall for as long as I can. I don't want anyone to forget me." I gave a slight chuckle and responded "Aunt Mary, anyone who has ever met you will never forget you. The reason is because you are one of those rare people who are unforgettable! We all love you so much, when you leave you do so knowing that we are happy you are restored and out of pain and we will one day have a reunion of our own."
