Pamela Williams Obituary
November 29, 1942 - April 14, 2024
Pam Williams, a loving wife, devoted mother, grandmother and friend, passed away peacefully on April 14, 2024, at the age of 81. She was born in Albuquerque, New Mexico on November 29, 1942, and lived a life filled with generosity and adventure.
After graduating from high school, Pam attended Stephens College in Columbia, Missouri, earning her degree in retailing. She soon married Mike Wilson and moved to Hereford, Texas where she worked as a department store buyer. Pam also taught senior government and sophomore geography at Hereford High School. Hereford is the birthplace of her only child, Sandy. Pam then moved to Fort Worth in 1966 and was working as a file clerk at Anadarko Production Co. when she became fascinated by the oil industry.
This led to a secretarial position with Bill Beuck, who Pam credited with igniting her interest in geology.
Pam later went to work for Bass Enterprises, simultaneously attending classes at TCU and UT Arlington.
She earned her degree in geology in 1983. She was remarried in 1998 to James "Chuck" Williams and relocated to San Antonio where she worked with Chuck in his many business ventures. Her favorite past times were fishing while vacationing in Port O'Connor, shopping, yard work and finding the best
restaurants in town. Pam was extremely grateful for the Mayfield family who she shared many years of memories with.
Pam was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Chuck; and sister, Patti Lewis.
Pam is survived by her sister, Catherine Humphries; daughter, Sandra L. Hamilton; grandson, Christopher G. Hamilton, along with numerous nieces and nephews.
Pam will be honored with a "Celebration of Life" on May 18, 2024 from 5:00 pm – 8:00 pm at The Petroleum Club of San Antonio, 8620 N. New Braunfels Suite 700 San Antonio, TX 78217.
Interment will be alongside her beloved mother and stepfather at Sunset Memorial Park in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

Sandy:
Larry and I are heartbroken. We just learned of Pam´s passing this evening, so unfortunately we will not be able to be there tomorrow. Pam (and Mandy) was so special and she was amazingly supportive during our health battles. We sure had her on our mind lately.
Prayers of comfort for you guys, she will sure be missed.

I just can't believe she's gone. She was a fighter until the end. She struggled mightily in her last several years; some people may not know that. She never gave up though, and always did the best she could. I miss her so much. She is no longer struggling just to live, and I am thankful to the Lord for that. The skies are crying and so am I...
