Deborah Brown Williams

Deborah Brown Williams, 64, of Charleston, WV died peacefully Wednesday, July 16, 2014, after a five year battle with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma, at the Hubbard Hospice House surrounded by her loving family and friends.

Debbie was a member of Grace Bible Church. She was preceded in death by her parents, Robert L. and Jean Case Brown, sister, Barbara L. Brown, and grandparents, Russell and Mildred Case. Surviving Debbie are her sons, Stephen S. Williams of Charleston, WV and Russell A. Williams of Atlanta, Georgia. She is also survived by her sister, Catherine F. Brown of Charleston, WV, brother, Robert “Casey” Brown of Mabank, Texas and adopted daughter, Samantha S. Stone of Charleston, WV, all of whom she love beyond measure. Her grandchildren, Taylor and Jack Williams, brought even greater joy to Debbie’s life. Debbie was a dedicated and passionate teacher as evidenced by the many students who’s lives she touched, an avid soccer fan, and a pioneer of the soccer program at Capital High School where her sons played. She was not only a loving mother and grandmother, but a kind, beautiful, caring, and intelligent woman who handled herself with dignity. She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue- Prov. 31:26 A Celebration of Debbie’s life will be held on Monday, July 21, 2014 at Grace Bible Church located at 600 Kanawha Blvd. W., Charleston, WV.
