Annette Williams

Annette Williams, 81, of Englewood, peacefully went to be with the Lord on August 6, 2025, at her home, surrounded by the love of her family.

Annette was the true definition of selflessness and compassion. A devoted caregiver by nature, she spent her life serving others with a kind and generous heart. Whether it was her family, her church, a neighbor, or a stranger in need, Annette was always the first to lend a helping hand. Her greatest joy was taking care of her family, and she did so with unwavering love and dedication. Her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren were her world, and she worked tirelessly to ensure they were loved, supported, and provided for.

A faithful member of First Baptist Church in Englewood, Annette loved her Lord and Savior deeply and lived her life as a reflection of that faith. Her gentle spirit, giving heart, and unwavering devotion to those she loved will be cherished and remembered always.

Annette will be deeply missed by all who had the blessing of knowing her.
