She was preceded in death by her paternal grandfather, Lee Williams; maternal great grandparents, Bernard and Joyce Bednar; paternal great grandfather, Ed Williams; paternal great grandmother, Joyce Rodriguez; maternal great grandfather, Carl Bedei; and uncles, Jeremy Williams and Bryson Williamson.

Evie was born at St. Francis, and was cared for by a lot of special nurses during her stay in the NICU, especially Deb, and Jamie.

She loved being held, mainly by her parents. She had such spunk, and sass that made her stronger. She liked her light up toys, her swing, bouncer, and her lullabies. She fought so hard despite all of the obstacles that were thrown her way. She was our sweet and very special Trisomy 13 warrior. She blessed us with 56 days, and the last 3 of those were spent at home being surrounded by family, and her dogs.

Memorials may be directed to the charity of the donor’s choice.
