Shirley Lee Williams, age 76, passed on August 8, 2020 at Phoebe Sumter Medical Center, Americus, Georgia.

Graveside services will be held at 11:00 A.M., Wednesday, August 12, 2020, Zion Hill Primitive Baptist Church, Ga Hwy 240, Ellaville, Georgia.

Please be mindful that we will adhere to all government recommendations and mandates to limit the number of attendees at all services at this time.

Shirley Lee Fulks Williams was the fourth of eight children born to the late Henry and Tressie Lee Fulks. She was born November 24, 1943 in Ideal, Georgia. She was educated in the Macon County School System as a 1962 graduate of D.F. Douglass High School in Montezuma, Georgia. She attended Georgia Southwestern College in Americus, Georgia. She retired as a Certified Nursing Assistance at the Pinehill Nursing Home in Byromville, Georgia. She was a faithful member of Zion Hill Primitive Baptist Church in Ellaville, Georgia, where she served as secretary under the leadership of Elder Paul Swift. She was preceded in death by her husband, Albert Williams, Jr.; two siblings, Earlene Fulks and Henry Lewis Fulks; and two grandchildren Jalen Fulks and Vivian Fulks;

Loving, nurturing, family historian, great cook, no-nonsense, hard-working, strong, independent…. All words to describe the one some called mother, grandma, aunt, sister, cousin, or friend. After walking in her house, you would receive two things: a home cooked meal and a life lesson. Those who knew her loved her very much. However, it was the Creator who loved her most of all…..

In the early morning of August 8th, God spoke to her and said, “Well done, my good and faithful servant; thou has been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy Lord”.

She is survived by her three children: James Fulks, Enterprise, AL; Calvin (Romina) Fulks, Marshallville, GA; Lisa (Vincent) Hinton, McDonough, GA; five grandsons: Michael Germany (Kim), Oglethorpe, GA; Detereayas Fulks, Ideal, GA; Christian Fulks, Macon, GA; Jordan Hinton and Matthew Hinton, McDonough, GA. five sisters: Ethel Mae Davis, Oglethorpe, GA; Ruthie Dean Perry, Detroit, MI; Etta Mae (Joe) Harris, Detroit, MI; Joyce Marie (Larry) Russell, Montezuma, GA; Barbara Ann Fulks, Detroit, MI; brother-in-law, Joe Smith, Oglethorpe, GA; sister-in-law, Obie Tookes, Detroit, MI; one aunt Annie Ruth (Jacob) Parker of Macon, GA; daughter-in-law, Sonnie Fulks, Macon, GA; two nieces she raised Annie Leola Fulks and Loretta Harries, Detroit, MI; special companion, James Willie Kelly, Richland, GA, godson, Terrell McKenzie, Fort Lauderdale, FL; special cousins, Margie Neil Worthy and Curtis Turner , Montezuma, GA; a host of beloved nieces, nephews, and friends.

Although Shirley was a kind-hearted, wonderful woman who will be missed, she will leave a legacy of cherished memories that will last a lifetime.
