"Tennie"

Life Reflections

Ethel Lee Williams was born April 24, 1954 in Webster Groves, Missouri to Theddie and Minnie Gilliam.

Tennie grew up and attended school in Webster Groves.  Tennie enjoyed spending time with her daughter and two grandchildren.  She also loved the family reunions that took place ever year in a different state.

Tennie accepted Christ at an early age at Nazarene Baptist Church, where she was a member of the choir and loved to sing.

Tennie was employed at Bethesda Healthcare where she remained until her health began to fail.

Tennie transitioned peacefully to her heavenly home on January 5, 2024, with her family by her side.

Tennie leaves to cherish her memory:  her daughter Candace, grandson Cory and granddaughter Corrine; sisters, Dorothy, Katie (Albert) and Emma who preceded her in death; brother, James (Janet) who preceded her in death.

Henry and Eddie (Pete); a host of aunts, nephews, nieces, cousins and friends.
