Annie Ruth (Williams) Wilson

Mrs. Annie Ruth (Williams) Wilson was born on July 6, 1944 to the parentage of the late Walter J. Williams and the late Willie Lue Corbin Williams.

Mrs. Wilson accepted Christ at an early age and became a member of Saint Thomas United Methodist Church, Sylacauga, AL. She was very faithful and dedicated to her church work and belief in God. She was a member of the Inspiration choir, a member of the (sub group of the united Methodist willing workers of Oakland heights), taught Sunday School for many years, attended Sunday School and bible study faithfully until her health begin to fail. 

Annie Ruth once served as secretary of Rising Star Baptist Church, Sylacauga, AL and Saint Thomas UMC under the tenure of Rev. Dobbins. 

She attended East Highland High School and graduated with the class of 1962 and furthered her education at a Business College in Birmingham, AL. 

Mrs. Wilson worked as a Teacher Assistant at Drew Court Day Care in Sylacauga, and many years at the Childersburg Daycare.  She worked at the Winn Dixie Grocery chain in Sylacauga and then transferred to Childersburg Winn Dixie where she later retired.  

Mrs. Wilson was indeed a good Christian hearted woman.  She took upon herself to check on the sick and shut-in as her way of outreach ministry.  Her love for the Lord could always be heard by her witnessing and praising God through the pastor’s sermon. She will truly be missed by all who knew and loved her.

Mrs. Wilson departed this walk of life on March 15, 2020 at Grandview Medical Center, Birmingham, Alabama.

She was preceded in death by her parents, her brother, Walter, Jr. and husband, Theodore.
