Payette Enterprise  5-11-1922
Payette Enterprise
Payette, Idaho
Thursday, May 11, 1922
 
MRS. AMELIA WILLIAMS
 
Mrs. Amelia Williams, wife of David H. Williams, was born at Jackson County, 
Ohio, April 12, 1845, and departed this life at the home of her daughter, Mrs. 
Philip Krost, May 4, 1922, her age therefore being 74 years and 22 days.  
 
She was converted at the age of 15 years and was ever a firm believer in 
Christianity and as such she has awakened in the Savior's likeness.  She was a 
member of the Payette Church of God, and ever filled her place well.
 
At Jackson, Ohio, June 25, 1870, occured the happy marriage of Miss Amelia 
Storer to David H. Williams, who passed away May 20, 1920, another happy 
reunion in eternity.  The union was blessed with four children still living, 
one son, W. R. Williams of Payette; three daughters, Mrs. P. H. Krost of 
Payette, Mrs. Mary McClure of Fruitland, and Mrs. Adma Bowman of Cove, Ark.  
Besides these three lives after her twelve grand-children and one brother-in-
law and one sister-in-law, and a large circle of relatives and neighbors.  But 
to these this sad hour is not the end of fellowship.  Heaven is home and we 
will know each other there.
 
   "Dearest mother, we must lay thee 
      In the peaceful graves embrace,
   But thy memory will be cherished
      Till we see thy heavely face."
 
In 1886 Mr. and Mrs. Williams moved to Nebraska.  In 1903 they moved to Idaho 
and this has since been their home.  Thus Payette again loses a true and 
loving Mother, a royal neighbor and friend, and it is again true, "Children 
arise and call her blessed".
 
Funeral services from the Church of God conducted by her pastor, Rev. Argyl 
Houser assisted by Rev. Hershel Shanks and Rev. N. H. Farnham.  The Parsons' 
quartet rendered beautiful music.
