Patricia Mae Williams, 85, passed away on October 4, 2026, in Chesapeake, Virginia. Born on June 25, 1941, in Virginia, Patricia devoted her life to being a homemaker. She will be remembered for the things she loved, the traditions she cherished, and the people who made her life special.

Patricia enjoyed spending time in the mountains, where she loved camping and occasionally hunting and fishing. She was a devoted fan of the Norfolk Admirals hockey team and the Washington Redskins. She also loved decorating for the holidays, bringing warmth and a festive spirit to the seasons she enjoyed. Her Baptist faith was an important part of her life.

Patricia was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 43 years, Don C. Williams; her parents, Margaret Williams and John Williams Sr.; her brothers, Clarence Williams and Marvin Williams; and her sister, Margaret McPherson.

She is survived by her partner, William Wilson; her brother, John Williams II; her sister, Carolyn Finch; her niece, Patricia McPherson; and two other special nieces, Etta Rude and Tammy Farley. She will also be remembered with gratitude by her neighbor, Ruth, who was a tremendous help to her, as well as other family members and friends who will miss her dearly.

The family would like to extend their heartfelt thanks to Sentara Hospice for the care, compassion, and support they provided to Patricia.
