Rita Williams Obituary

In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye… (1 Corinthians:15:52):

holding hands together.

Rita L. Williams

Rita L. Williams went to be with the Lord October 8, 2014. She was the loving wife of C. H. Williams Jr., who preceded her in death.

Rita is survived by her son, Doug Mangas and his loving wife, Maggie; daughters, Deborah L. Williams and Lisa V. Gershenson, along with her tender-hearted husband, Ed; many grandchildren; and cousin, Peter Pepke.

Blessed with her strong faith, Rita and her family leave these following words during this time of sorrow:

Trust in the Lord… (Proverbs 3:5,6): thank you for clear direction.

Pray without ceasing…(1 Thessalonians 5:17,18): prayer warrior.

We know that all things work together… (Romans 8:28): being a faithful friend and guiding mentor.

Do not weep! See, the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed… then I saw a Lamb (Revelation 5:5,6): yes, you did, Mom. Amen.

Rest in peace Rita

December 2, 2014

Throughout the times I often thought about this woman and had no way of connecting with her, I am so sorry to hear of her passing. I remember mostly her laugh! Lisa if you read this I have also thought about you and if you could or wouldn't mind please email me and let me know how you are doing. I spent a lot of time with you, your mother and sister at the apartment on Grant Street and then at the house. Please accept my deepest sympathy to all of you. Vicki (Elliott) Henico.
