OBITUARY: Mrs. Mamie Williams, 8 Mar 1890 - Smith County, TX Submitted by Vicki Betts 7 December 2002 Copyright.

C. Williams, after an illness of only a few hours, died at her home in Tyler, Texas, March 8, 1890. When one so young, so beautiful, so kind, so lovable, and so pure, is borne away by the stern "Angel of Death," so blinded are we by our grief that we can scarcely refrain questioning the mysterious providence that called her away. Only twenty and a wife and mother, with two children so dependent on her love and care. No words of human sympathy can assuage the grief of her husband; neither can we lighten the sorrow of the parents who mourn the loss of such a daughter. But there is one thought which must bring comfort to us all: She was a sweet, pure Christian; and, although she was called away so suddenly that she could leave no message, we have that which is best of all—the memory of a pure Christian life. We know at the end there, with Him who has gone before to prepare a place for his loved ones, we will meet Mamie, our darling, once more to part never again. A FRIEND.
