Myrtle “Elizabeth” Williams, 91, of Bryan, passed away quietly Wednesday, October 19, 2011 at St. Joseph Manor. A graveside service will be 3 p.m. Saturday, November 19, 2011 at Wellborn Cemetery.
Elizabeth was well known to many for her employment, from the early 1950s into early 1988, with Pruitt’s Fabric Shop. Fashion was her passion. Most of Elizabeth’s generosity was done quietly except for her donation of property that enabled the Wellborn Fire Department to become a reality.
Elizabeth was preceded in death by her husband, Milton “Mitt” Williams, her son, Johnny David and her daughter, Peggy.
Survivors include her daughter Patsy Elizabeth Williams; granddaughters, Lisa Cooksey, Patricia Kennaugh and Tara Walker; sisters, Edwina and Kathryn and six great-grandchildren.
For my 2nd mom, Elizabeth, who was always there for me my entire life. I miss you greatly. Our long talks, no topic was ever taboo between us, every word of encouragement every lesson you taught me about dealing with life and the people in it & your steadfast motherly advice will be in my heart forever! I love you more than words could ever say! God Bless you always!
Dear Patsy, As I read the paper today and saw the picture of your Mother it took me back in time down memory lane. She was a beautiful lady. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
