Georgia Irene Butler was born in Mitchell (Lawrence Co.), Indiana in 1907. In 1928, she married Marvin Vernal Williams in Topeka, Kansas. They had 6 children together. She worked for the State of Kansas in downtown Topeka. As far as I know, they never lived anywhere but Topeka, Kansas. In 1964, she was widowed.
Georgia worked for the State of Kansas and was a devoted Christian. She was one of those people that churches everywhere rely upon to keep functioning. She would do the thankless jobs behind the various activities. She would help in the kitchen and cleanup after church dinners. She would help type notices and bulletins and do any of the "unseen" tasks that lighten a minister's burden.
On Sundays, as well as Wednesdays (Prayer Meeting), she would often leave home 30-40 minutes ahead of time so that she could pick up two or three elderly widows who did not drive. Besides taking them to church and returning them to home, she took them shopping and other errands. It is ironic that after so many years of service to others, she herself became incapacitated with Alzheimer's. Unable to function independently anymore, she spent her last several years of life in a nursing home.
