Phyllis A. Williams

Born to Lillian (Mayo) Coleman and Leroy Coleman December 5th, 1928.

She lived a very full life for nearly a century. She was a mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother all her life, and she did her best to create wonderful memories and traditions for all of her family.

She was truly the “Glue” that kept up with all of everyone. She spent her working years working in small bakeries as a child to help support her large family, to being a real-life Rosie the Riveter, working as a welder during World War II, making military/aviation combustion heating systems.

She then worked at the post office, working her way up from a clerk to postmaster of the Brice Post Office, where she eventually retired from. She lived a very full life at 97 and made sure her loved ones always had what they needed.

She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Eugene Davidson Williams; stepdaughter, Kay Mitchell (Williams); brothers, Joseph Coleman, Everett Coleman, and Harold Coleman; and sisters, Joyce Anita Coleman, Shirley Nelson (Coleman), and Patricia Uribe (Coleman).

She is survived by her brothers, Leon (Bobby) Coleman and Gregory Coleman; her children, David Eugene Williams and Pamela Kay Williams; her grandchildren, Traci L. Feck, Dawn M. Kopp, Anna R. Williams, Dean Mitchell, Stephen Mitchell, and Candice Mitchell; and great-grandchildren, Cameron Isaiah Williams-Kopp, Amiya Jaden Williams Kingery, Daijha Maddison Louise Sparks, and Cherishmyangel Apple Renee Sparks.

She is also survived by her nephew, Anthony V. Coleman, who helped to care for her in her home.

A celebration of Phyllis's life will take place on Tuesday, November 10th, from 5 p.m. - 7 p.m. at Schoedinger Northeast, 1051 E Johnstown Rd. Gahanna OH 43230 in her honor.
