Kathleen Williams Devine, 72 of Dunn, passed away on Sunday, March 2, 2025.
Born on December 24, 1952, in Springfield, MA, Kathleen was the daughter of the late Junior Everette Williams and Phyllis Tracey Williams. In addition to her parents, she was also preceded in death by her husband, George Lacy Ansley, Sr.; son, James Everette Blake; grandchildren, Theresa Duffy and Michael Lawrence Scott; and brother, Delmus Everette Williams.
She is survived by her daughters, Shannon Hibler and her husband Scott, Christine Rudy, and Kimberly Roberts and her husband Jay; grandchildren, Cody Wilson and his wife Anna, Magen Rudy, Nathaniel Rudy, Matthew Rudy, Julie Birr and her husband Cody, and Caitlyn Ammons and her husband Jerek; siblings, Daniel Williams and his wife Bridget, Robin LaMirand, and Martin Williams and his wife Stella; several nieces and nephews; and a host of other family and friends.
Kathleen will be remembered as a diligent hard worker who always gave her best effort to every job she took on. This held true even up to the time of her passing. In her spare time, she could be found casting her trusty fishing rod whenever and wherever the opportunity arose. She was a simple lady who enjoyed the simple things. Most of all, Kathleen loved Jesus and her family and had a strong bond with both. She was a loving and dedicated mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend who will be greatly missed and forever cherished by everyone who knew and loved her.
