Lillian C. Williams, 83, of Fremont, went to be with her Lord in the late evening of October 19, 2017 with family by her side.
Born November 2, 1933 in Bowling Green, Ohio to the late Arthur Sr. and Lillian Pearl Dickey, Lil married Harold Ray Williams on July 21, 1951 in Greencastle, Indiana. They settled and raised their family in Fremont, Ohio, enjoying almost 57 years of marriage together.
Lillian worked many years within the family tree care business, Ace Tree Service, performing bookkeeping and administrative services. She lived every day to the fullest and was known as the life of the party! With her vibrant spirit and energetic personality, she lit up the room, spreading humor, laughter, and happiness wherever she went in addition to spending time with family and friends, Lil loved going on shopping adventures and sporting the latest fashion.
Lillian is survived by her children; Michael (Claudia) Williams, Susan (John) Ottney, and Cindy (Eric Overmyer) Williams, all of Fremont, OH; sister MaryAnn Homler, Clyde; sister-in-law and best friend, Helen Williams, Green Castle, IN; 10 grandchildren; and her many, many great grandchildren, whom she adored. While Lil will be deeply missed, we find comfort knowing that she is reunited with loved ones who have preceded her in death; her husband Ray, her daughter Karen; sisters Wilma, Ginny, and Helen; brothers Bud, Gib, and John; and many friends.

October 21, 2017 at 10:51 amJen, Natalie, & your families,
I am so sorry for your loss. I remember going to your grandfather’s home several times during the summer of 1989. Your grandmother always had a smile & invited everyone in as family. During the summer of 1990, I saw Mrs Williams once. I was pregnant & she was so comforting & gave me great advice. I never saw her again, but I never forgot what a sweet & kind person she was. Prayers for your comfort at this time.
