Patti Williams Obituary

Published by Legacy on Oct. 8, 2024.
It is with a huge broken heart and an immense amount of tears and sadness that we announce the passing of Patti Jo Williams.
She had a courageous 8-year battle with cancer that she fought all the way to the end. Her son Lui, along with her long-time love Russ Prior, her sister Donna Ramsey Frick, her best friends Julie Mikulic and Laura Grisham, my wife Lila Williams, and her good boy Loompi, were blessed to surround her with love and make her comfortable until she was ready. We will forever be grateful to be by her side, to hold her hand with our family surrounding her, until she took her last breath.
Patti had the most adventurous spirit full of light, love, and energy. She loved to travel and always went where her spirit and angels took her. She loved to go anywhere and everywhere with her best friend and was blessed to have her person to lean on. Her family was always her comfort blanket and all she ever needed. Her long-time love Russ was her defender, crutch, support system, caregiver, and overall guardian angel to the very end.
Her son Lui was her lucky star, her only child, and she was his protector, savior, and the only person on this planet who could hold a son tight with the unconditional love that only a mother could give.
Patti is survived by her long-time love Russ Prior, her son Lui Williams and his wife Lila, Sisters Donna Frick and Barbara Burdick, her granddaughters Makela and Kira Williams, niece Megan Frick, nephew Adam Frick, and brother-in-law Todd Frick.
