Elaine Williamson Obituary

Elaine Bleakley Williamson

El Paso - Elaine Bleakley Williamson passed peacefully on Monday, September 21, 2020, in El Paso, Texas, at the age of 69. Elaine made an indelible mark on the people she touched throughout her lifetime. She was born at West Point, New York, and her family traveled to many exciting places around the world and the U.S. In her adult years, Elaine joined the Navy rising to the rank of Lieutenant Junior-Grade. During this time, she met and married the love of her life, Larry Williamson. After numerous deployments, they settled in Larry's home state of Alaska where she and Larry spent 26 adventurous years. Elaine made many friends whom she loved quietly and loyally, and she worked and volunteered at the Anchorage Museum and other places in the community. Aside from traveling, she had many interests. Elaine had a great affinity for writing prose and poetry, but loved photography, camping, her poodles, and the Alaskan life. Her greatest love was photography and she had many of her photos entered in shows, the Alaska State Fair, and gifted many to family and friends. Elaine is survived by her nieces Lee Anne Vega and Anne Marie Malloy. Services will be held in El Paso, Texas on October 3rd, at 3:00 p.m. at Martin Funeral Home. In lieu of flowers, we ask that you remember Elaine's legacy by making a donation to the Humane Society of El Paso—she would have liked that. www.martinfuneralhomewest.com






Elaine Bleakley Williamson falleció en paz el lunes 21 de septiembre del 2020 en El Paso, Texas, a la edad de 69 años. Elaine dejó una marca indeleble en las personas a las que tocó durante toda su vida. Nació en WestPoint, Nueva York, y su familia viajó a muchos lugares emocionantes en todo el mundo y en Estados Unidos. A su edad adulta, Elaine se unió a la Marina y ascendió al rango de Teniente Junior-Grade. Durante este tiempo, conoció y se casó con el amor de su vida, Larry Williamson. Después de numerosos despliegues, se establecieron en el estado natal de Larry, Alaska, donde Larry y ella pasaron 26 aventureros años. Elaine hizo muchos amigos a quienes amaba en silencio y con lealtad, y trabajó y se ofreció como voluntaria en el museo Anchorage y en otros lugares de la comunidad. Aparte de viajar, tenía muchos intereses. Elaine tenía una gran afinidad por escribir prosa y poesía, pero amaba la fotografía, acampar, sus caniches y la vida de Alaska. Su mayor amor era la fotografía e hizo que muchas de sus fotos aparecieran en eventos, la Feria Estatal de Alaska, y obsequió muchas de ellas a familiares y amigos. A Elaine le sobreviven sus sobrinas Lee Anne Vega y Anne Marie Malloy. Los servicios se llevarán a cabo en El Paso, Texas el 3 de octubre a las 3:00 p.m. en Martin Funeral Home. En lugar de flores, le pedimos que recuerde el legado de Elaine haciendo una donación a la Sociedad Protectora de Animales de El Paso. A ella le hubiera gustado. Visite www.martinfuneralhomewest.com
