Mr. KELLY of Mississippi. Madam Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the life of Nancy Ann Kincade Williams, who passed away on April 26th at the age of 78.

Nancy Ann, born in 1941, grew up in the Mississippi Delta and graduated from Clarksdale High School in 1959. After high school, she spent one year at the Mississippi University for Women before transferring to the University of Mississippi. After graduating from the University of Mississippi she began working as a teacher until she received her ultimate calling of being a loving and dedicated mother to her four children.

As a member of the First United Methodist Church, Nancy Ann was very active teaching bible study and serving as a youth leader. She was also a very active member of her community volunteering in the Fin de Siecle Club, Garden Club, and Junior Auxiliary. Nancy Ann's life of service and giving back to others also included serving as a homeroom mother, a scout leader, and a swim team coach.

Left to cherish her memory is her husband of 57 years, Kenneth Weaver Williams, her four children, her brother, and 15 grandchildren, as well as many friends and family members. Nancy Ann's life was one of service, grace, love for her family, and community. She will be greatly missed by all whom she encountered.
