So sorry for your loss. Flora was a co-worker which I have very fond memories. She and her husband gave my girls and me many starts from thier garden. When my girls and I look at the trees, it brings fond memories of Flora and Leiw helping us dig them up and giving us planting directions.

Flora welcomed so many people into her space and showed genuine care for all around. Students loved her, her church family relied on her faithful service, and our kids enjoyed her encouragement from afar. She delighted in her family and was extremely proud of the grandchildren’s accomplishments. We will miss her beautiful poetry, musical arrangement, and storytelling. Blessings to the entire Williams family.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Liew and family, I am so sorry to learn of Dr. William's passing. Flora and you were important persons in my life during college. As you may remember, she was my student teacher supervisor as well as a friend through the church. I am sorry that we haven't had connections since the INAFCS Centennial Celebration where I last saw both of you. I am not sure that my latest address for you is correct so I hope you see this message. Take care. Roma Jean and Charles Bradburn

Dr. Williams was an inspiration to me as a graduate student at Purdue. I loved her many examples of the cost of immediate gratification! I referred back to those many a time as I made a decision to wait! My sympathies to the family.
