Mary was the greatest cheerleader and “Rodeo Mom” for her kids. She was their biggest supporter and was very proud of them. She was kind, sweet, and never rushed her time with those she loved. She had a great sense of humor. She had the best penmanship and loved doodling all the time. She loved baking and cooking and she was famous for her Mexican food and popcorn balls. She loved to go camping at Ol’ Creek with her ward as a young woman. She loved her kids, her grandkids, and her donkeys and puppy dogs.

Mary is survived by her husband, Chuck Williams, Jr., her children, Ronny (Janet) Williams, Jared (Michelle) Williams, Chad Williams, Delda (Dan) Thiel, Bubba (Mandee) Williams, and Weston (Jordan) Williams; her fifteen grandchildren; her thirteen great-grandchildren; and her siblings, Joe Valdez and Gerry Blanton. She is preceded in death by her parents; her brothers, Art Valdez and Jimmy Valdez; and one grandchild.
