Denyse Williams

Posted

On Nov. 5, 2023, Denyse Williams passed away peacefully surrounded by her family in her home in Globe, Arizona, at the age of 75. 

If you knew Denyse you loved her. She never met a stranger. She spent her life serving others and striving to love like Christ. She was a woman of strong faith and had an unwavering love for her country. 

She was a devoted wife to David Williams, who preceded her in death March 4, 2022; a caring mother to her two daughters Stayce Underwood (Manzel Underwood) and Charity Rice (Danny Rice); the very best grandmother to her five grandchildren, Joey Underwood (Jennifer Underwood), Kyle Underwood, Kristen Underwood, Virginia Jordan (Chris Jordan) and Hannah Rice; and an amazing great-grandmother to Riley, Lane, Kaden, Hollie, Emmet, Ryan and Chantel. 

We will continue to grow in her legacy and strive to “Love Like Denyse.” 

A celebration of life will be held in her honor and will be announced at a later date.
