Darlene Ann Williams, 64, of Concord, North Carolina, passed away on September 9, 2025, at Atrium Health NorthEast, surrounded by her loved ones.

Born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Darlene was the beloved daughter of Ann Mae and Donald Szyskowski. She was preceded in death by her husband, George Williams, with whom she shared many wonderful years.

Darlene is survived by her devoted children, Trish (Chris) Manthei and Chad (Kristine) Williams; and her three treasured grandchildren, Logan (9), Kennedy (6), and Carter (4). Her family - especially her grandbabies - were the joy and center of her life. She loved nothing more than spending time with them and cheering them on in everything they did.

A proud Pittsburgh native, Darlene was a lifelong fan of Steelers football and The Ohio State Buckeyes. Her spirited personality, warm heart, and unwavering love for her family will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

A private celebration of life will be held with close family and friends.

Hartsell Funeral Home of Harrisburg is serving the Williams family.
