Georgia N. Williams of Eugene, Oregon, formerly of Rich Hill, passed away March 1, 2008 after a
courageous battle with breast cancer.
Georgia was born Jan. 24, 1923 in Papinsville, to the late Otto and Icie Williams.
She was preceded in death by two brothers, Dewey Williams and John "Allie" Williams and three sisters,
Virginia Fritts, Betty Murphy and Rosella Bise.
She is survived by one brother, Billy Williams, Pinetops, NC and two sisters, Marjorie Smallwood, Osceola and Patsy Reed, Shawnee, KS. She is also survived by Marla and Troy Prentice, Eugene, OR and
many nieces and nephews.
Georgia graduated from the Rich Hill High School and worked at many restaurants before moving to Sterling, IL and then to Eugene OR. Georgia was a caring, gentle and compassionate lady who wanted to help and please everyone she met. She asked very little in return, just to be loved. She endured terrible pain
but never complained.
Memorial services will be held on March 22, 2008 at the First United Methodist Church, Eugene, Oregon and at a later date Memorial services will be in Rich Hill, with burial in Green Lawn Cemetery.
