Sister Williams, as I got to know her when I was at Salem Chapel, she always had a sweet and caring Spirit, she expressed kindness to me when I needed it. Best of all I really loved talking with her whenever I saw her. God shows us that he is in control and he will take us in his time. To the Williams Family all is not lost,God knows our sorrows.
To the entire family of Mrs. Catherine Wiilliams. I will certainly miss cousin Catherine, I'am missing her upon hearing of her transition and I'm so happy that I was invited to her home on Christmas day, the very last time I saw her. I thank God for being an part of her life. The phone calls, traveling to church together, phone conversation, oh yes, all those will be missed. We are saddened, but God, needed her to come back home to him. Keep looking unto God family, God 🙏 knows whats best....... Darlean Graham and Family
