Savannah Williams
May 17, 2002 — May 31, 2018
Old Union Community- Molly Savannah Williams, 16, went to her heavenly home Thursday, May 31, 2018, at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center in Cincinnati, Ohio. She was born in Tupelo May 17, 2002, to Phillip and Sonya Williams. Savannah was a student at Shannon High School where she was a member of the varsity softball team, Beta Club, Honor Choir, gifted art program, and student council. She loved going to the beach and was an avid Ole Miss fan. She was very active within her community, her church youth group at Old Union Baptist Church, as well as her school. She believed in the saying "Once a Raider, Always a Raider" and was a friend to all who had the honor of meeting her. Savannah was a ray of sunshine to everyone she touched, and the family would like to remind everyone to stay #SavannahStrong.
