Meet Mary Williams, Resident of the Month
Mary (Brumback) Williams was born on
April 15, 1930 in Iowa to parents Roy and Ida
Brumback. Mary was a middle child with two
brothers. Shortly after Mary was born, her
family moved to Seymour, Mo., where her father
owned a plumbing and heating business and
her mother was a homemaker. Mary shared
that she and her family enjoyed gathering
around the radio after dinner to listen to radio
programs. Mary attended school in Seymour
until her first year of high school when they
moved to Carthage, Mo.
Mary recalls the time when she was set to
go out with a boy, but her father disapproved
of him and forbid her to go. Her father met
this boy’s friend and liked him very much. He
declared to Mary, the she either marry him or he will adopt him! In August 1956,
Mary and Gene C. Williams were married in a small wedding ceremony at home
of her older brother.
Shortly after getting married, the couple moved to the Springfield area. Gene
was employed by the Kraft Food Company and raised cattle on their farm and
Mary ran her own book keeping service.
Mary has been blessed with two children. Carla, Mary’s eldest, currently lives
in Springfield with her husband and Roy, her youngest, lives in Springfield with
his wife and two daughters.
Mary shared that she spent most of her time working and didn’t have much
time for hobbies. When she did have some free time, Mary enjoyed reading and
would sew all of her daughter’s dresses. After the couple retired, they began
spending their summers in Texas. While there, they made lots of friends and had
a wonderful time.
Since making Parkview her home, Mary enjoys spending quiet moments, eating chocolate ice cream, and attending activities, especially Bible study. Mary
also enjoys people watching in the front lobby.
Congratulations Mary on being chosen as the Parkview Healthcare Facility
Resident of the Month for June.
