Lea Ann Williams Obituary

LEA ANN (LESLIE) WILLIAMS

Evansville, IN


After a long illness, Lea Ann (Leslie) Williams, 81, passed away on May 15, 2024, at Heart-to-Heart Hospice. Lea Ann was born October 30, 1942, to Paul and Velma (McCormack) Leslie. She grew up near Spurgeon, Indiana, and attended Spurgeon High School. Her high school classmates were very dear to her. Lea and Gary Morton were married for 15 years, had three children, then divorced. Lea Ann and Don Williams married in 1977 and spent 47 years together.


After 29 years working at Mead Johnson/Bristol Myers, she retired. Don and Lea Ann moved to Lynnville, Indiana and started Lakeside Daylilies. They grew hundreds of hybrids, registered daylilies and many seedlings. When the daylily farm became more work than they could do, they moved back to Evansville.

Lea Ann enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren and attending their activities. She had many hobbies such as making stone jewelry and then later piecing many beautiful quilts.
