In Loving Memory of Mrs. Carrie Lillie Paige
Miss Carrie Lillie Williams was born in Chambers County, Alabama on November 11, 1922, to the parentage of the late Mr. and Mrs. Percy Lee Williams and Mae Susie Harrison Williams. Her family of origin consisted of a large and loving family of siblings including: brothers: Percy L. Williams and Robert Lewis Williams; and sisters: Winnie L. Gilham of Washington, DC, Christine Williams Trammell and Ethel Mae Williams Cannon, of Roanoke, Alabama, now deceased.
At an early age, Carrie joined Sweet Home Baptist Church in Five Points, Alabama, where she remained a faithful member throughout her lifetime.
Carrie united in marriage with the late Mr. Otis Paige. Their union was fruitful giving rise to two sons, one daughter, and a host of grandchildren and great grandchildren.
As many of our African American elders did, Mrs. Paige survived, and did well as a domestic worker. Mrs. Paige resided in Connecticut for many years, where she worked in environmental services, and continued to enjoy cleaning, ironing and caring for others.
She was preceded in death by a son, Nicholas Paige. Carrie Lillie spent many wonderful years in the Traylor's Nursing Home, where she would often visit with relatives and friends. Carrie Lillie departed this life on Monday, August 10, 2015 at Wedowee Hospital in Wedowee, Alabama.
