It is with profound sadness and hearts filled with love that we announce the passing of our precious angel, Blessin Arlene Williams, who was born on September 19, 2026, and departed this earthly life on the same day at Sentara Williamsburg Hospital.
Although Blessin’s time on earth was brief, her life was deeply meaningful. She was a precious gift from God, lovingly anticipated and already surrounded by a family who loved her beyond words.
Blessin leaves to cherish her precious memory her loving parents, Barry and Brittany Williams; her siblings, Jaydien, Trinity, Dawavieas, and Skylar; grandmother, Gina Williams; grandfather, Michael Elliott; aunts, LaQuana Wigfall (Gerard) and LaShay Goodall (Montray); uncles, Marcus Williams (Keshia) and Justin Williams (Rebecca); and a host of loving relatives and friends.
Blessin was preceded in death by her maternal grandmother, the late Arlene Johnson; her great-grandmother, the late Olivia Williams; and her great-grandparents, the late Robert and Martha Burnett.
We find comfort in believing that Blessin was welcomed into Heaven by those who went before her. We can imagine her grandmother, Arlene, with that beautiful smile, opening her arms to welcome her precious granddaughter home. What a beautiful reunion it must be.
Though our hearts ache because we did not get the earthly time with Blessin that we prayed for, we are grateful for the love she brought into our family. Her tiny life made a lasting impact, and she will forever remain a cherished part of our family story.
Revelation 21:4 reminds us:
“He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain.”
Blessin, you were loved before we met you, cherished from the moment we knew you were coming, and you will be loved for all eternity. Your time with us was short, but your impact will last forever.
Until we meet again, rest peacefully, sweet Blessin.
You are forever loved.
Forever remembered.
Forever our angel. Love Mom and dad
“Gone from our sight, but never from our hearts.”
