WHITEVILLE — Susan Rae Williams would like to let you know that her work here is done. She received a call, a sort of an offer you can’t refuse, for an appointment from which she will not be returning. This assignment comes with a huge sign-on bonus, a reunion with family and friends she has not seen in a long time. Her new mission takes her to a wonderful place where she will be socializing and dancing to her heart’s extent; love and laughter are guaranteed. She left specific detailed instructions for her family and children to celebrate her mission here, which has now been completed.
Susan Rae Williams, 35, passed away peacefully Monday, March 13, 2017, at her home in Whiteville, N.C. She was born May 18, 1981, in Wilmington, N.C.
