Colette Williams Obituary

Williams, Colette Ann

Age 67 - September 18, 2020

Of Omaha. Went Home to the Lord on September 18, 2020. She courageously fought her 8-year battle with cancer. Colette will be sorely missed by her husband, Wayne Williams; their 3 daughters and one son, Heather Williams, Tim Dario (Nichol), Heidi Williams and Jade Williams; grandson, Tristen Dario, all of Omaha; and granddaughter, Trinity Dario, great-grandson, Hoku, of Valdosta, GA. She will be greatly missed by her brothers, Phil Moser (Aylene Kovary), Sherman Oaks, CA, Rick Moser (Jody); and sister, Theresa Moser, all of Cody, WY; numerous family members and friends.

Colette retired from OPPD, Fort Calhoun, Radiation Protection. Her greatest loves were her family and home life. She was passionate about cooking, even fed large crowds for ministries; and summer camp! Colette loved reading, handicrafts, and giving gifts, from her huge, generous heart. Colette loved singing in Church and sharing what the Lord had done for her.

MEMORIAL SERVICE will be Saturday, September 26, 2pm, Midland Baptist Church, 5111 N 78 St, Omaha. Colette asked for any donations to go to their Church.

Sorry to hear of Colette's passing. She and Wayne were my lead technicians at Ft. Calhoun in 1984. Wonderful person. I was invited to her house for Easter of that year and had a wonderful time with the kids. It was my first time playing Trivial Persuit !

My heart is broken for you all. She was an amazing mom! Her heart was so big and open, she made me feel like a part of the family whenever I was there, which was a lot. I will carry my memories of her for the rest of my days. Know that I'm sending you all love and prayers. d

We remember when Wayne and the children came to church as a result of Bible Time in the park one summer. We also remember the Sunday Colette came forward to be saved and she went downstairs and Margaret led her to the Lord. We are rejoicing in Colette's ultimate healing and the fact we know where she is and that we will see her again. We are praying for God's extra measure of grace as you gather to celebrate her life.

My Dear Colette, so many adjectives: kind, loving, giving, beautiful. I will cherish always the woman, wife & Mom that you are. Thank you so much for the friendship we had. See ya down the road >p=O<ü

She was a great woman who will be remembered for her impact on those around her. She gave many baked goods, especially at Christmas. She gave her added touch to making ministry meals at Freeway Ministries when she was able. She shared her salvation testimony to the teen Bible class and explained what the Lord had done for her. She will be greatly missed!

So full of love and fiesty as heck! She will be so dearly missed. She loved me like her own. I'm so blessed to have been able to make memories with her and Tim Dario these last two years and officially become family last month.
