It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Evelyn Ann Biggs Williams, age 74, of Brewton, AL, who passed away on July 20, 2025, at D.W. McMillian Hospital. Born on September 27, 1950, in Atmore, Alabama, Ann was a retired librarian from Jefferson Davis Community College. She was a devoted wife, daughter, sister, aunt, grandmother, and friend.

Ann is survived by her husband, Michael Williams; stepsons Mata (Mae)Williams and Durak Williams; grandchild Flannery (Jeremy) Standford; and great-grandchildren Addison, Bayden, and Fynnegan. Additional survivors include her sisters-in-laws, Ann Pauline Biggs and Deni Biggs; nieces and nephews Megan (Craig) Matthews, Wesley (Tammy) Biggs, Ricky Biggs, Becky (Bruce) Moore, Tracy (Robert) Lambrecht, Vicky Biggs, and numerous great-nieces and great-nephews and great-great-nieces and nephews.

She is preceded in death by her parents, John Henry Biggs and Mary Evelyn Smith Biggs, brothers, John Leon Biggs, Henry Derwood Biggs, Charles William Biggs and Benny Dale Biggs and In-laws John and Mary Williams, and her niece, Debbie Biggs.

Ann was a dedicated member and pianist at Lottie United Methodist Church. She will be fondly remembered for her unwavering love for family and friends, as well as the many meaningful relationships she cultivated during her career as a librarian at Jefferson Davis Community College. She will be remembered by her nieces and nephews for enriching their lives by organizing special outings, including canoeing, birdwatching, theatre visits, and dining out together.  For many, she fostered a lifelong love of reading, never missed a birthday, and frequently brightened days with thoughtful notes or cards. Her interest in family history and genealogy was matched by her passion for bird watching and flowers. Ann was known for her generosity, often inviting others to enjoy sunsets from her porch—affectionately referred to as "Porch TV."  She was actively involved with the local historical society and the FSHD Society. She and her husband, Michael, were active in many nature conservation groups including the Nature Conservancy, Alabama Rivers Alliance, Alabama Wildflower Society, and Alabama Hiking Trail Society.

Cindy Zirlott officiating.  Family will gather from 9:30 to 10:00 a.m., followed by visitation for friends from 10:00 a.m. until service time at 11:00 a.m.  A graveside service will take place at Lottie Cemetery where she will be laid to rest immediately following the service.
