Obituary For Regina Ann Williams
~ On August 25, 2021, God looked around his garden and found an empty place. He then looked down upon the earth and saw your loving face. He put His arms around you and lifted you to rest. God's garden must be beautiful, He always takes the best. He knew that you were tired, He knew that you were in pain. He knew that you would never get well on earth again. He saw the road was getting rough and the hills were hard to climb. So He closed your weary eyelids and whispered "Peace be thine." It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone... A part of us went with you, the day God called you home. ~
~ The Obituary ~
Mrs. Regina Ann Williams, affectionately known as “Deana” was born on April 10, 1957 in Birmingham, Alabama to Betty Jean Seawright and the late Napoleon Cook Sr. She was the eldest of four siblings.
At the age of six, she moved to Valdosta, Georgia where she attended the Valdosta City School system.
On March 23, 1980, Regina married her loving husband of 42 years, Arthur James Williams Sr. In the course of this union, they nurtured a blended family of three boys and four girls.
Regina Williams is preceded in death by Napoleon Cook, Sr. (Father), Jimmy Lewis Gray (Brother), Steven Bernard Williams (Son), Perry Adam Seawright (Step-Father), and Maddie Lee Warren (Grandmother).
She was a member of Alpha & Omega Church, where she served as secretary for many years.
She was an employee at Langdale Place in Valdosta, Georgia. If you knew Regina Williams, you knew she lived with a spirit of hospitality. Her passion for cooking became her ministry. She was known for her tasty pound cakes, savory cornbread dressing and buttery biscuits. She had a great sense of humor, keeping her family and friends entertained with food and laughter. Regina was like a mother to many, providing support, encouragement, and having a listening ear when needed. In addition to her personality, she was bold, strong-willed and straight forward. The best way to describe her was “REAL”.

A celebration to honor her life will be held on Saturday, September 4, 2021 at 11AM at Riverview Memorial Gardens in Valdosta, GA with Pastor Floyd Demps, eulogist. Visitation will be Friday at the Stevens-McGhee Chapel from 5PM-7PM. Continue to keep the family in your daily thoughts and prayers as they face the days ahead.

Mama you was my rock, my best friend, my gossiping buddy, my words of comfort when I needed it, my everything. I miss you so much, mama. Not a day don't go by I don't think of you. Never would've thought at the age of 34 I'll be motherless. I still text your phone hoping you'll pick up. I miss the constant phones calls throughout the day. I miss you're cooking. I miss joking around with you. I miss hanging out with you. I miss it all mama. Although I didn't want you to go and I still feel like I need you. I have to accept that God needed you more and that what hurts the most. I love you mama and I'm going to continue to make you proud of me as you was before you died. Lord give me the strength. I love you so so so so much mama aka sadie lol. Fly high, fly high
