Elaine F. Williams of Mountain Home, Arkansas, passed away May 13, 2024, in Mountain Home, Arkansas at the age of 79. She was born April 20, 1945, in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, the daughter of Wilbert and Mildred Metzgar Erickson. Elaine's journey was intertwined with that of her husband, John, whom she knew from their school days. When their paths crossed again later in life, they were married on April 15, 1995 in Pennsylvania. For 29 years, the couple stood by each other's side through life's joys and challenges. Elaine lived in Mountain Home, Arkansas since moving from Pennsylvania 16 years ago. She was a member of Unity Missionary Baptist Church of Gassville, Arkansas. Among Elaine's many passions were gardening and crafting. Her green thumb flourished as she tended to her roses and cultivated a breathtaking courtyard flower garden. Her talent extended to crafting greeting cards. Her creations were not just cards, they were heartfelt expressions of love and care that held a piece of her heart. The recipients of Elaine's cards cherished each one they received.
Elaine is survived by her husband, John Williams of Mountain Home, AR; children, Devon Williams of Cody, WY, and Amy Jean (Joe) Williams of Marietta, GA; grandchildren, Gage Edward Williams, Jackson Wascom, and Millie Wascom.
