Barbara Williams

Jul 29, 1945 - May 17, 2025

Barbara Ann Williams, age 79, of College Station, TX, entered into the presence of the Lord on May 17, 2025. Barbara, also affectionately known to her family as "Bobbie," was born on July 29, 1945 in Waco, TX to Maudell and Hulon Baker and was the 2nd of four daughters. Barbara graduated from Metropolitan General Hospital Nursing School in Nashville, TN on June 23, 1967 before marrying Jimmie Leroy Williams of Bryan, TX. She later earned her bachelor's degree from Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. After college, they returned to Bryan where sons Matthew Alan and Wesley Scot were born. She and Jim were subsequently called by the Lord to missionary work in Monterrey, Mexico, where she worked as a nurse while ministering to the local community. In 1980, they moved to Victoria to raise their family but eventually found their way back to Bryan.

Barbara lived a life filled with love, joy, and unwavering dedication to the Lord and her family. She was a woman of deep faith who made sharing God's love the cornerstone of her life. She leaves behind a legacy of kindness, faithfulness, and gentleness.

Left to cherish her memory are son, Alan and daughter-in-law Mandy, son, Scot and daughter-in-law Theresa; grandchildren, Riley, Reagan, Walker and Harvey; sister, Nancy Davis, sister, Linda Nichols and brother-in-law Charles; sister, Carol and brother-in-law Bob Ecklund, as well as several nieces, nephews and loving friends. She was preceded in death by her husband, Jim, her brother-in-law, Danny Davis, and nephew, Chris Nichols.

A celebration of Barbara's life will be held on Friday, May 30th at 1 p.m., at Grace Bible Creekside Campus in College Station, TX.
