In Loving Memory: Susan Williams

Susan Williams, 78, of Reston passed away on Sept. 9 at Cobbdale Assisted Living in Fairfax, VA after a battle with dementia.

Born in Pittsfield, Mass., on Nov. 18, 1946, she moved to Northfield, N.J. in 1948 and lived there until after she graduated from Immaculata University in 1968. She completed an internship with the Public Health Service in Staten Island, N.Y., in 1969 and soon thereafter moved to Houston, Texas where she lived and worked until 1987 when she moved to Reston to be nearer to family.

Susan worked as a dietician throughout her career in Texas and then in Virginia until she retired in 2016. She loved living in Reston and resided there for 39 years. Susan enjoyed traveling with friends in the United States and Europe, enjoying several river cruises and exploring new locations whenever visiting them.

Susan was predeceased by her parents: John E. Williams and Anne B. Williams. She is survived by her sisters Jane Williams of Reston, and Joanne Williams of Herndon, her nephew Brian Loux (Amber Jaycocks) and her nieces, Emily Jarding (Andrew) and Megan Loux.

Burial will take place in New Jersey at a later date.
