On April 23, 1983, Sondra married the love of her life, Dwayn Williams, at Holy Cross Lutheran Church in Dallas. She and Dwayn moved to Coppell in 1985 and started their family, first welcoming Brad and six years later Brianna. Brad currently lives in Krum, TX and Brianna is attending Medical School in Ft.

Sondra aspired to be a dancer on Broadway but had an incredible 42 year career with Bank of America. In 1979, while still in high school, she began her banking career in Carrollton, TX part-time and worked her way up to executive ranks over the years. In her most recent position Sondra was the head of Global Treasury Operations (GTO) at Bank of America. As the GTO executive, she was responsible for the delivery and support of treasury operations solutions for corporate clients. She managed various teams of several hundred associates across the US, Canada, Mexico, India and Ireland. From 1991-1993, Sondra majored in Business Administration at Texas Tech University and held a Six Sigma Greenbelt certification. She was an alumna of Women Unlimited and actively supported the United Way of North Texas having held past leadership roles in the company’s annual campaign. Some of her proudest accomplishments included being an active sponsor of Women in Technology and Operations and Diversity and Inclusion networks including being an LGBT Ally. The mentorships she fostered throughout her career will leave a lasting impact across the organization.

Other positions that Sondra held were being Treasurer for Christ Our Savior Lutheran School in Coppell, TX. For 9 years. She and Dwayn were also part of the founding families for Christ our Savior Lutheran Church and School, Coppell, TX.

Sondra loved to travel, especially if a beach was a possible option. She loved traveling to Europe with London specifically being her favorite. She also enjoyed the Wine Country of Napa Valley and dinners in San Francisco on the pier. When she was not traveling, Sondra loved a relaxing weekend by the family pool with some great Jimmy Buffet, Journey, and ABBA playing and margaritas flowing.

Anyone who ever came in contact with Sondra will tell you the one thing they absolutely loved about her was her incredibly infectious smile! Her smile would light up the room and make any problem seem not so relevant. Sondra had a great wit about her, full of humor and made anyone always feel welcome and important.

Preceding her in death is her father Albert Sigmon.
