Obituary

Jo-Lynn Williams, "Cissy", passed away on Sunday, July 17, 2016 at Hospice & Community Care, Mount Joy. She was born in Lancaster to Jo-Ann (Clark) Williams and the late Charles E. "Pidge" Williams, Sr.

She graduated from Lancaster Catholic High School and worked many years as a C.N.A. at Conestoga View. Cissy and her sister Jennifer made gorgeous jewelry as a hobby, specifically bracelets and earrings. The pieces were incredibly unique, and they built a nice following, known as JEN "N" CIS. They had set up stands at a few church fairs and did quite well!! They would also make specialty pieces if asked. Cissy was an avid reader, specifically of mystery novels. James Patterson was one of her many favorites.

She loved watching the Cooking Channel. Two of her most special chefs were, the Barefoot Contessa and Giada de Laurentiis. She watched them both loyally. Obviously another of Cissys hobbies was cooking. She loved and excelled at it. Every Monday, the "Monday Mix", she and two of her best friends, Judy and Joe, would invite friends over. Everyone was to bring a homemade dish. Sampling everyone's dishes was one of the highlights of her week. Everyone waited in anticipation for her dishes!! They were usually devoured within the hour after being served! Leaving everyone asking, "Can I have the recipe"? She would smile that beautiful smile and laugh! Sometimes she obliged, sometimes, smile, oh well!! So, Judy and Joe, please keep that tradition, exactly that, a tradition. She always had a great time, preparing and attending! She will always be there in spirit, never forget that.

Cissy is survived by her mother, Jo-Anna Williams; her siblings, Charmaine, Jennifer and Charles Jr. "Ducky" (Bena); and her nieces and nephews, Christian, Savannah, Dorian, Kierstan, Tiesha, Teasia, Monique, Kearia, "Tigger" (Tyrone), Deshawn and Aaliyah. You all should know this, you were loved. Aunt Cissy will always be watching over you. Dorian, Kierstan, your Aunt Cissy was extremely proud of your accomplishments. Kierstan, attending and graduating college, Temple, with a Bachelor of Arts. Dorian, attending and completing Champs Barber School. We also have to include her two, four legged offspring, Pebbles and Onyx. Those cats ruled the house. She is predeceased by her father, Charles Edward Williams, "Pidge". Cissy, our Cissy, leaves behind a legacy of friends and family. Remember her with a smile, great stories, a prayer, a song, but, remember, she is happy and at peace, and partying with Prince!

Cissy's family extends their heartfelt gratitude to her nurses, Melissa, Shelly and Diane. Your thoughtfulness will not go unappreciated.
