MARGARET SARAH BAXTER WILLIAMS

Margaret Baxter Williams, a native of Lincoln Parish, a former resident of 
Jackson and Union parishes and a most recent resident of Patterson in St. Mary 
Parish, went home to be with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on Sunday, April 
29, 2012, at the age of 89.

Margaret's life can best be characterized by the word "servant." 

Margaret was a member of First Baptist Church of Morgan City.

Previously, she served her Lord as R.A. leader, Sunday School teacher, member 
of the choir, and other areas of church life in Hodge Baptist Church and First 
Baptist Church of Farmerville.

She worked in many capacities throughout her life, in-cluding serving others 
as a beautician, seamstress and sales clerk in a retail store.

During her retirement years, Marga-ret loved to cook — especially for her 
family; and at various times in her life, she enjoyed sewing, gardening, 
crocheting, quilting and reading.

Margaret is survived by her daughter, Ann Cooper; her son-in-law, James 
E. "Jim" Cooper of Patterson; one grand-daughter, Rebecca "Becca" Cooper of 
Fort Worth, Texas; two sisters, Mary Howard and Mae Travis, both of Houston; 
and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.

Margaret was preceded in death by her husband of 68 years of marriage, Huel D. 
Williams; her granddaughter, Jama Ann Cooper; her four sisters, Luna Williams, 
Jewel Brewster, Annie Belle Robinson Bruner and Gladys Baxter; and her three 
brothers, Marvin, Robert and Rev. Rand A. Baxter.

A time of remembrance and reflection will be observed Tuesday, May 1, 2012, at 
First Baptist Church of Morgan City, beginning at 9:00 AM until service time 
at 11:00 AM.

Visitation will continue Wednesday, May 2, 2012, at First Baptist Church of 
Farmerville, beginning at 9:00 AM until services at 11:00 AM.

Margaret will be laid to rest in the Gayla Traina Memorial Cemetery in 
Jonesboro.
