I had the pleasure of meeting Ms Bernice in North Carolina, through the Late Vita Andrews and her daughter Verna Adams. We had such good times...that I will cherish forever! The memories have already started to make my heart smile..I pray the same for you!

Ms. Bernice rarely met anyone that she couldn\’t end up calling a friend. She had a very kind loving heart, and spirit. She treated everyone like family. I\’ll surely miss those phone calls from her that would begin, \”What\’s up?\”, followed by many stories pertaining to family, friends, travel, or anything under the sun. Her smile, and laugh was infectious. I\’m honored to have had her in my life, and in the lives of my children. She treated us like family, and never lost site of us after my mom, and very dear friend (Ms. Vita Andrews) preceeded her in death. She will be missed, but her memories will forever live in the hearts of all who knew her. Sleep in heavenly peace Ms. Bernice Williams. I love you like the cooked food that you, and my mom have prepared for me countless times. My heartfelt condolences are extended to the entire Williams family. Sending Gods love, and Blessings your way. \”Blessed Are They Who Mourn\”

My heart goes out to you. I pray that God will strengthen, guide and keep you. Although time and distance have kept me away, my family is always in my heart. I’m so happy that I was able to spent time with Auntie Bernice last year. Now the angels will sing out as they welcome her home. The God of love and peace will be with you…2 Corinthians 13:11

Auntie Bernice, the thing that I admired most about you was your unwavering love, support and pride for your family. My only regret is not bridging the gap in the distance between us. There was so much more I could have learned from you and about you. I hope that you and Daddy are in heaven with your loved ones and that you are both guardian angels to those you left behind. Much love and respect to a remarkable lady who will never be forgotten.

From my family to the entire Williams family, we would like to send our heartfelt condolences. Your Mother was a true God fearing, vibrant, beautiful, strong woman. She love to laugh and sing praises to God. She maybe gone in body but never in spirit. She is only a whisper away. We will keep the family in our prayers.
