Allison Williams' Obituary
After a courageous battle with cancer, Allison Williams, 41, of ARP, TX passed away on August 21, 2019. Allison was a vibrant soul with a passion for life and a deep faith in God. She was an energetic and athletic child who played all-star softball. You could find her climbing trees, making forts and playing in the famous “ditch” on the family property. With all of her “tom boy” ways she also had a very soft and maternal side. As a small child she always had a babydoll in hand; what started as dolls, became family and friend’s babies, babysitting, nephews and nieces and even the occasional stranger’s babies at the checkout (insert laugh). We all knew Ali just had a “way” with children. As a young woman she met the love of her life, Josh and fulfilled her life-long dream and true calling of having babies of her own. Her four incredible children are the legacy of the Mother that she was. Ultimately, as her kids began to grow, she watched over her Headstart “babies” in Region 7. She loved those kids...”her kids” as she called them. Even while fighting this evil disease, Ali could be found wherever the kids were...football in hand, launching kids into the air with big laughs that could fill up a backyard. Children were drawn to her like a magnet. To know her was to know one of the kindest people ever. She showed her love to all.
Allison is survived by her loving husband, Josh Williams and their four children: Joshua, Isaac, Kaitlyn and Elisha of Arp, TX; her parents, Albert Sesin of Waterville, Maine and Linda King of Longview, TX; her siblings, Lisa and Adam Bataran, Adam and Cassandra Sesin, Laura and Paul Crate, and her brother-in-law’s, Eric and Laura Williams, Matthew and Ruth Williams, and her sister-in-law, Jessica and Austin Holscher. She leaves many nieces and nephews, friends and other family members who will miss her dearly. Also, William, her beloved German Shepherd.
