Carol Williamson Lilley | Eastern NC Now

Died: January 9, 2021
    Carol Williamson Lilley, the most loving wife, mom, and grandmother passed away on January 9, 2021 at the age of 71.

    Carol was the daughter of William Harvey Williamson Jr. (father) and Agnes Hodges William (mother).

    She was a graduate of Washington, NC High School and Kings Business College in Raleigh. Carol married Ronia Shelton Lilley Jr. on December 23, 1967 and just celebrated 53 years of marriage.

    Carol prayed for many years to have children and received the blessing with two precious children who quickly became her life and four grandchildren, Kimberly Lilley Rosenbalm (daughter) who is married to Randy Rosenbalm with Annastey (granddaughter), Shelton Lilley III (son) who is married to Lakin Lilley with Ayden (grandson), and Hudson (grandson), Lariah (granddaughter).

    While living in Washington, NC Carol attended Alligood Church of God and Snowd Branch Church of God.

    Carol loved the water so much, and vacationed as often as possible to see many sites around the world. Her children and grandchildren are her most prized possessions and to be with them was her everyday goal. Carol loved the Lord Jesus with all her heart and wanted nothing more than for her children and grandchildren to love Him the same way she did. Even though her life was cut short she did leave the greatest example of love that will forever be engraved into the hearts of her husband, her children, and grandchildren.
