Molly Williams Abele, daughter of Janice Hart Williams and the late Albert Dozier Williams, passed away peacefully on November 2nd after a long battle with colon cancer.
Molly graduated from Mountain Brook High School and went on to earn her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Alabama, where she was a member of Pi Beta Phi sorority. Molly was also a member of the Birmingham debutante club.
For many years, Molly had an rewarding career as a charge nurse in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at UAB. Her kind, helping heart was evident not only in her career choice, but in every aspect of her life. Molly had an extraordinary capacity for caring for others, and that compassion extended to animals and the many pets she cared for. She was known for caring for any creature in need. Molly also enjoyed many hobbies, including photography, and scrapbooking. She also instructed photography classes at Samford University.
Molly's capacity to care for others was especially apparent during her battle with cancer, where she continued to put on a brave face, always putting her family first.
Molly is survived by her husband of 21 years, Dr. Donald Lamar Abele, MD., and by the joy of her life, her daughter, Stabler Dozier Abele.
