Erma Christine Burchfield Williams

Erma Christine “Chris” Williams passed away peacefully on Saturday June 1st, 2024 at the age of 84. Chris was born in Whitewright, Texas to Garland and Mary Partridge Burchfield. After graduating from Sherman High School, she attended technical skills school in Dallas, Texas before meeting her future husband, Orlin Williams. They married June 4th, 1961, and were married just short of 63 years.

She is preceded in death by her parents and her brothers Charles and L.C. Burchfield. She is survived by her husband, sons Patrick, Dale and Dennis Williams, nine grandchildren and five great grandchildren. She is also survived by her three daughter in-laws, brother Eddie Burchfield, and many nieces and nephews.

Chris’ passion was her family. She loved being involved in her kids’ lives, spending time with her grandchildren, and attending family gatherings. Nothing made her happier than having all her family together during special occasions, especially Christmas. She was blessed to live and visit many parts of the World and the USA as the wife of an Air Force Veteran. After the Air Force, she and Orlin settled down in Austin, Texas. After retiring from the Veterans Administration, Chris retired with Orlin to their dream home and little farm in Waelder, Texas.

In lieu of flowers, please consider making a memorial donation in Chris’ honor to the Animal Defense League of Texas.
