Susan Ellen (Burns) Williams

Susan E. Williams, age 55 of Jefferson, died unexpectedly early Thursday morning at her residence.

She was born December 15, 1964 in Bedford, the daughter of the late George & Lois E. (Thieman) Burns, Jr. and has resided in the Jefferson area the past 30 years.  Susan worked with Tree Preservation as a tree trimmer before having to take disability retirement.

Susan had many great enjoyments, her dogs Nikki & Sage often were top priority, woodworking, bottle digging, riding 4-wheelers, music, her “woman’s cave”-her garage and trips to Cook Forest in Pennsylvania.  Susan loved people, always others before herself.  She was a kind, beautiful soul that loved her wife, kids and grandkids with all her heart.

Sedilko; four children, Jason (Tasha) Williams & Jessica Hampton, both of Jefferson, Alex Williams of Tacoma, WA & Corey Williams of Jefferson; five grandchildren, Aiden, Leandra, Caroline, C.
