Virginian-Pilot  September 11, 2022
In the early morning hours of Sunday, September 4, 2022, God sent His Angels to 
gently usher into His welcoming arms His faithful servant Gail Hagans Williams. 
Born October 7, 1946, to the late Harold and Vera Craft Hagans, she was the 
beloved wife of CMSgt. Edward P. Williams, USAF (Ret) of Chesapeake for fifty-four 
years, and the loving mother of Edward P. Williams Jr. (Christina) of Brandon, 
Florida. A graduate of B. T. Washington High School in Norfolk and a former 
employee of DePaul Hospital, she was a devout member of the Basilica of Saint Mary 
of the Immaculate Conception, where she served on a communications committee.

Always eager to maintain close family relations and contacts, Gail was 
instrumental in cultivating and preserving family traditions. She had a kind, 
gentle spirit, and she trusted in God with unwavering Faith. In addition to her 
husband and son, Gail is survived by sisters, Harriett Hagans Johnson, (Rev. Dr. 
Donald W. Johnson, deceased) of Lynchburg; VA, Sandra L. Hagans of Virginia Beach, 
VA; and brother, Colonel Harold L. Hagans, Jr., U.S. Army (Ret) and wife Teresa of 
Lorton, VA. She is also survived by an uncle, William R. Craft (Carrie) of Bronx, 
NY and by brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law, Martha M. Jones, Helen L. Edwards, 
Mary Staten (Harry), Sam J. Williams (Mae), and Jim E. Williams (Josephine). She 
was preceded in death by brother-in-law, Charles H. Williams (Mary) and sister-in-
law, Margaret G. Williams. Numerous cousins, nieces, and nephews whom she dearly 
loved also survive her.

A visitation for Gail will be held Monday, September 12, 2022, from 5:00 PM to 
7:00 PM at Woodlawn Funeral Home, 6329 E. Virginia Beach Blvd, Norfolk, Virginia 
23502. A mass of the resurrection will occur Tuesday, September 13, 2022, at 11:00 
AM at Basilica of Saint Mary of the Immaculate Conception, 1000 Holt Street, 
Norfolk, Virginia 23504.

Gail will be laid to rest in St. Mary's Cemetery, 3000 Church St, Norfolk, VA 
23504.
