Obituary

Georgetown: Miriam Thames Williams of Georgetown, SC entered into eternal rest on January 13, 2021. She was the wife of the late Dr. Clifton Lide Williams of Georgetown, a beloved physician in the Georgetown area. Miriam, the daughter of the late Jennings Bryan Thames and Cecilia Denshovits Thames, was born in Awendaw, SC on February 1, 1929. She was raised on the Santee Delta where she enjoyed boating, skeet shooting, and being outdoors. She graduated from Winyah High School in Georgetown and attended Limestone College in Gaffney, SC. She is survived by her children, Deborah Williams Jeter and her husband, Guy of Mt. Pleasant; Dr. Clifton Lide Williams, Jr. and his wife, Joanne of Spartanburg; Cynthia Williams Peper and her husband, Steve of Mt. Pleasant; Jeffrey Michael Williams of West Ashley; and Dr. Laurie Williams Wallace and her husband, Otway of Mt. Pleasant. She leaves behind ten loving grandchildren who adored their MaMa: Cecelia Jeter McPhail (Fred), Margaret Williams Humphrey (Bob), Guy Wilburn Jeter, Jr., Clifton Lide Williams III (Brooke), Stephen Brice Peper (Fallon), Coles Williams Alamia (Stefan), Blakely Williams Peper, Colin Clarke Wallace, Lucy Byrd Wallace, and Mary Lide Wallace.

She is predeceased by her cherished "Sista," Dorothy Thames Bruorton. Miriam was a longstanding member of the First Baptist Church of Georgetown. She was dedicated to her church and faithfully served in many capacities. For years she headed the meal program in the church kitchen that provided Wednesday night suppers for the church community, member of the choir ,and led a women's Sunday School class. Miriam was delighted and most happy being with her family, especially in the kitchen, where she expressed her love for others by preparing incredible southern cuisine and desserts. Miriam's Kitchen was a place that fed your body and soul, and all were invited to her table. She loved the Lord with all of her heart and was an example to others, especially to her children, of how to live a Christ-centered life. We would like to thank everyone for your love and prayers extended to our entire family during our mother's illness. Funeral Services will be private due to Covid-19. A Celebration of Life will held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, memorials are suggested to: Georgetown First Baptist Church, 219 Cleland St, Georgetown, SC 29440.
