Betty was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and friend who touched the lives of many with her kindness, dedication, and love for her family.

Betty worked for Graham White for 30 years in assembly, where she was known for her strong work ethic and commitment. After retirement, she found her greatest joy in spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She also cherished the companionship of her beloved dog, Abby.

Betty was preceded in death by her loving husband, Ralph Williams, and her parents, Eckie and Una Moses.

The family would like to extend their heartfelt gratitude to Megan and Mary of Carilion Hospice for the compassionate care and support they provided to Betty and her family. We would also like to express our sincere appreciation to Peggy, her caregiver, whose dedication, friendship, and loving care brought comfort and companionship to Betty throughout her journey.
