** Mrs. William's funeral service will be held at the Dial Baptist Church**
Mary Opal Allen Williams, 78, of Honey Grove, Texas went to her heavenly home on the 6th of June, 2025 in Paris, Texas. Mary was born on August 15th, 1946 to Arlie Lee Allen and Doris Allen in Shreveport, Louisiana. She grew up in Honey Grove, Texas. Mary married the love of her life, Joe "Red" Williams on November 21st, 1962 in Glory, Texas and together they lived and raised their family as proud members of Honey Grove, Texas and the Honey Grove Cowboy Church.
Mary's joy was found in the simple moments - she kept the family straight, loved everyone and her front door was open to anybody that needed a safe place to be. She would always make sure that you were fed and had everything you needed before you left. Mary was full of laughter and had a story for everything, even getting tickled at herself through every minute of the story.
Mary was preceded in death by her parents, husband Joe "Red" Williams, and grandson Chandler Williams.
Mary is survived by her daughter Shelia Kinard of Honey Grove, TX, son Joe Williams of Hugo, OK, son Roger and Derise Allen of Honey Grove; sisters Ann Campbell of Richardson and Sherry Kendrick of Seattle WA, Cheryl and Tony Sherwood of Windom, TX; grandchildren Ronnie Kinard and wife Maranda of Honey Grove; Chris and Yensina Reese of Honey Grove; Larissa Williams of Bonham, TX; Amanda McKenzie of Honey Grove; Ashley Garcia; Chesney Williams of Paris; and Kason Williams of Dodd City; Great Grandchildren, Carrie Stalling and husband John Michael, Kameryn Kinard, Kynlie Kinard, Avery Reese, Nolan Reese, Maddy McKenzie, and Mason McKenzie and great great granddaughter Collins Stalling along with many nieces, nephews, and cousins.
Procession will leave from Cooper Sorrells Funeral home in Honey Grove, Texas at 10:30 AM on Tuesday June 10th, 2025 directed to a funeral service at Dial Baptist Church with Terry Cunningham presiding.
Pallbearers Louie Williams, Jr., Michael Moore, Randy Jones, John Michael Stalling, Colter Gilmore, Scotty Holmes Honorary Pallbearer Raymond Estelle
