Obituary for Ellen Eizabeth Williams (Henry)
WILLIAMS, Ellen Elizabeth (Henry) –
Ellen Elizabeth Williams (nee Henry), beloved mother, grandmother, and retired teacher, passed away peacefully on February 21, 2023 at Hospice Niagara, in St. Catharines, Ontario after a courageous battle with pancreatic cancer. Born on January 17, 1945, Ellen dedicated her life to her family, her teaching career, and being an active member of her community.
Ellen was a devoted wife to Brian, mother to Lesley (David) Jesseau and Scott (Kyra) Williams, and was incredibly proud of her three grandsons, Ben & Nathan Jesseau, and Asher Williams. Throughout her life, she was an active walker, who enjoyed the outdoors and the beauty of nature. After Brian’s passing in 2014, Ellen relied on the loving support of her Niagara-on-the-Lake community and friends including her beloved poker group, community organizations such as Newark Neighbours and her travelling companions with whom she travelled to South America, Mexico, Spain, and Morocco.
Ellen will be deeply missed by her family, friends, and all those who knew her. Her kindness, generosity, and unwavering spirit will forever be remembered and celebrated. The family wishes to thank the incredible staff at Hospice Niagara for their work to support Ellen and them through her final days.
Per Ellen’s wishes cremation has taken place. The family will receive friends at MORSE & SON FUNERAL HOME, 5917 Main St., Niagara Falls, on Saturday, February 25, 2023 between 11am and 2pm. As an expression of sympathy, those who wish may make a memorial donation to Hospice Niagara or to Pancreatic Cancer Canada.
