Roanoke, Virginia · Tuesday, March 07, 2000

Jane Slusher Williams, a resident of Floyd County since birth, with the

exception of several years in Garrett Park, Maryland, and more recently

Snyder Nursing Home in Salem, passed away on November 3, 2020 at

the age of 85.

Jane is survived by her brother & sister-in-law, Lane & Mina Slusher of

Kansas; special sister-in-law, Nadine Slusher of Floyd; son & daughter-

in-law, Michael K. & Jackie Williams of Canton, GA; daughter & son-in-

law, Teresa W. & Eddie Worth of Floyd; grandchildren, Jason M. Oury of

Newport, TN, Jessica K. Oury Kellogg (David) of Floyd, Jacob Estrada,

husband of the late granddaughter Jordan Oury Estrada of Newport, TN,

Aaron Williams, and Claire Williams of Canton, GA; great-grandchildren,

Colton Ryder Oury and Aurora Jane Estrada of Newport, TN. She was also

 blessed with many nieces, great-nieces, nephews, great-nephews, and

cousins.

Jane was preceded in death by her parents, George & Callie Slusher;

husband, Deward T. Williams; brother, Maurice T. Slusher; and sister,

Betty Mannon.

In younger days, Jane was a bank manager, a Camp Bright Star cook, nurse,

and mom to a lot of summer camp kids that missed their parents. More

recently, Jane was a devoted volunteer at Angels in the Attic, a hard

working gardener and yard perfectionist, proud grandmother, and still a

great cook!

Jane enjoyed spoiling her grandchildren with her baking, as she was always

baking, and whatever activities they wanted to do. She enjoyed making

crafts including growing her own gourds to create beautiful bowls, making

quilts, learning how to make shaker wooden baskets and even painting.

She loved a craft show.

Funeral services will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Sunday, November 8, 2020 in

the Maberry Funeral Home Chapel. Interment will follow in the Jacksonville

Cemetery. The family will receive friends from 1 – 2 p.m. prior to the service

at the funeral home.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the American Cancer Society

or Alzheimer’s Society and are greatly appreciated.   

Masks are required inside of the funeral home for those wishing to attend

services. Please remember that seating is limited.
