In Memory of Amy Jo Williams
​​Amy Jo Williams, 59, passed away peacefully at her home on Saturday, August 12, 2017.
Amy was born October 14, 1957 in Kingston, PA and settled in Jacksonville, FL later in life. Amy loved spending time with her family, watching football (Go Gators and Jags!) and helping others through her work at River Region Human Services. Amy’s love of helping others led her to receive her Masters in Mental Health Counseling in 2013 from Webster’s University. She also served her community through 19 years volunteering with the Jacksonville First Coast Nutcracker each December. Amy was a remarkable woman who will be missed deeply by each life she touched.
