Following a family vacation to the World's Fair in New York in the 60's she knew she wanted to live in New York City. She moved there shortly after graduating from the University of Tennessee.

Throughout her retirement she was an active member of the Community Affairs Committee and loved her role putting together the Performing Arts Group calendar of activities. Even during the pandemic she orchestrated outdoor performances for the residents. She also served several terms on the nominating committee for the Hudson View Gardens Board. She and Ira have lived at Hudson View Gardens since 1997.
She is preceded in death by her mother, Ora Jean Rea Williams, and father James Braswell Williams.
