Anna was born April 3, 1926, in Blanket, Texas, and was raised by her parents, Aubrey and Jessie Fisher. Anna married her childhood sweetheart, Gene Williams, March 16, 1945, in Blanket. After marriage, they relocated to Brownwood, where Gene, a carpenter, built their first home. Both children, Larry and
Cynthia, were born during their stay in Brownwood. Soon after, the family moved to San Angelo. In 1954 the Williams Family moved to Tyler. During their time in Tyler, they were very active members of the First Baptist Church of Tyler. Anna and Gene sang together in the senior choir and participated in their son,
Larry's, Special Needs Sunday School classes. Along with being an active member of the church, Anna was an active member of the Senior Citizens Center, where she did square dancing with Gene, and played dominoes with friends. Due to growing health issues, the Williams family moved to Garland on March 16, 2011, to be closer to their daughter Cynthia. Soon after arriving, Anna's health became the incentive for her to move into the San Remo nursing facility.
Anna was preceded in death by parents Aubrey and Jessie Fisher, husband, Gene, and brothers, Douglas
and Bobby Fisher. She is survived by son, Larry Gene; daughter, Cynthia Ann; son-in-law, Douglas Wilson; grandson, Christopher James; and nieces, Carla Elinzondo, Dreta Keller, Pam Williams, and Brenda Weaver.
