Lillian was a long friend and generous supporter of Dallas Seminary where she met her cherished husband Dick in 1956. Lillian loved being with people, especially to teach and read through God's word. She especially loved to "visit" with friends and family over a cup of tea. She epitomized proper southern hospitality, cherished cooking and hosting a fine meal with all the accompanying accoutrements including fine china. She enjoyed world travel often in support of ministry and missionaries. She is preceded in death by her son Sidney, her husband Richard, her sister Martha, and many others. She was known to many as beloved Aunt Pud, nephews, nieces, friends and their spouses, children, and grandchildren. She is survived by her son Richard K, and his wife Kathy and her daughter Ruthie. At a young age Lillian recognized that she did not measure up to God's righteous standard revealed in the Bible and trusted Jesus for the forgiveness of her sins. She spent her life in support of her beloved husband pastor, teacher, Richard A. Williams in full time ministry. Lillian was the consummate pastor's wife and loved by many.
