Brenda Lee Neuman Williams of Hot Springs, AR, passed peacefully in her home Wednesday, April 10, 2024. She was born June 22, 1960, in Peoria, IL to the late Donald and Barbara Neuman.
Brenda married Steve Williams on August 9, 1980. They were married for 31 years before his death October 16, 2011.
Surviving are their children Khaliah Coleman of Little Rock, Mandie (J.R.) Gober of Hot Springs, and Brandon Williams of Nashville. Brenda's pride and joy were her six grandchildren Jasmyne Shelton, Adam Coleman, Makennah Gober, Reese Shelton, Orion Williams and Gage Gober. She is also survived by her siblings Donald Neuman (Connie) of Indiana, Michael Neuman of Arizona and her favorite sister, Cheryl (Herb) Simpson of Kentucky as well as numerous nieces and nephews.
Brenda followed her heart and left her nursing career to devote her time to their growing family.
They leave behind a legacy including many "adopted" children throughout the years that continued to hold a special place in her heart. She also leaves behind several close friends at Rose Villa who she loved dearly.
Brenda's wishes were for her ashes to be buried with her husband in Oakhill Cemetery in Brimfield, IL. A private memorial will be held at a later date for family and friends.
