Shirley June Williams

Shirley June Sandlin Williams, a devoted mother, cherished homemaker, and faithful servant of God, went to be with her heavenly Father on June 7, 2026, at the age of 87.

Born on September 16, 1938, to the late Curtis and Lillian Sandlin, Shirley was also preceded in death by her beloved husband of 67 years, Harry Williams, and her eight siblings.

Shirley’s life was defined by her deep love for God and her family. As a longtime parishioner of the First Baptist Church of Pleasant Grove, she poured her heart into her church community and lived her faith daily. She took great joy in making a warm, welcoming home for her family, and later in life, she also shared her talents professionally as a tax preparer for a number of years.

An artist at heart, Shirley was a skilled, self-taught seamstress who found immense joy in sewing. She also discovered a passion for oil painting, a beautiful craft she lovingly learned from her sister, Lou.

Her legacy of love, faith, and creativity lives on through her family. She is survived by her two daughters, Tracey Tucker (Dan Tucker) and Linda Smith (Russ Smith). She also leaves behind five grandchildren and six great-grandchildren who will miss her dearly.
