Doris May Williams passed away on Wednesday, April 16, 2008 in Kennewick, Washington. She was 74 years old. Doris was born November 21, 1933 in Lewiston, Idaho, to Jess LeRoy White and Mildred May Crawford.
Doris's greatest love was spreading happiness and gifts throughout the family, while asking for nothing in return. Doris was raised on a small ranch in the North Fork/Dent area in Idaho, where she enjoyed horseback riding. She attended a local school until 8th grade, then went on to attend high school in Orofino, ID where she met the love of her life, Jack Williams. She also attended beauty school in Lewiston, ID.
In 1956, she married Jack Williams and they raised three children. They enjoyed fishing, hunting, camping, riding motorcycles and attending their kid's ballgames. They also had a good time on their spring and fall trips to Reno, Nevada. In later years, they moved to Anchorage, Alaska, where they loved the beautiful scenery and fishing. After her husband passed away, she retired after 35 plus years as an insurance agent and relocated to Richland, WA to be closer to her daughter.
She was preceded in death by her parents, husband, younger sister, Yvonne Woolfolk, and her son, Mitchell. She is survived by her brother, Bill White and wife, Billy Mae of Orofino, ID, daughter, Jacci Wallace and husband, Edward Wallace of Kennewick, WA, her son, Jay Williams of Anchorage, AK and his wife Christina, her grandchildren, Jamie Williams and wife, Onnah and their daughter, Shylia, Amie Williams, Jackie Williams, all of Boise, ID and Ryan Williams of Kennewick, WA. Her extended family includes numerous nieces, nephews, in-laws and friends.
