Marline Hayes Williams was born to Mr. Vest Hayes and Estella Frazier Hayes February 6, 1933 in Gould, Arkansas. She later moved to College Station, Arkansas and united with the Antioch Baptist Church under the leadership of Rev. Albert King. After the passing of Rev. King in 1988, she continued her spiritual journey under the leadership of Bishop Kenneth L. Robinson and the Antioch Full Gospel Baptist Church. She was a faithful servant of the usher Ministry and the Mother Ministry for many years until her health failed her. Mrs. Williams was called by God to join family and friends in her heavenly home on March 4, 2013. In 1986, Mrs. Williams was certified as a Personal Care Aide with Central Arkansas Area Agency on Aging, where she touched the lives of many. The last 15 years of her life, she continued to dedicate her time and service as a foster grandparent with United Cerebral Palsy at Butterfly Learning Center. Her greatest joy was working with the children and staff. Today we celebrate her life. We celebrate because those who shared her life know how blessed we are and how good God has been. We celebrate God's gift of her to us these many years and then we remember all the wonderful life experiences with her. Now, God has spoken.
