A little over 29 years ago, I joined the family by way of Your son Richard’s first son Richard Jr…I THINK he was the first, I don’t know.. but you are likely the only one who KNEW if he was the actual first of a gajillion Williams Grands to populate Sacramento and the surrounding counties!!
You did that when you made him💜😳🤣🤗🙃
From my first Family Camping/Fishing trip to my last bedside visit with you, I’ve always felt like I was one of yours.
Effortlessly.
You knew every one (of 252,356) of us so thoroughly that we got exactly what we needed to get when we were in your presence.
Who you were for me was nothing like who you were for the rest of us. Who You were for them was not who you were for me.
You tactfully nurtured and corrected us as individuals, you understood what we needed when we needed it, you allowed us to be us until we needed straightening!
I’m usually content when our elders’ work is done and they leave us.. I wish I could experience the Celestial ceremonies of our Elders receiving their Reward from our Father, but I know I can’t and won’t until it’s my turn by His Grace and Will.
My only regret is not getting you out of bed and smoking a refreshing Menthol cigarette with you!!!
I Love you Grama Lu. And I’m so very blessed that you loved me.
I hate crying these tears of losing your earthly presence…cause I know our Creator has given you power beyond this place…
