Kathleen Anne Williamson (Thomas) of Laurel died at home Jan. 29, 2025, after a short battle with cancer.
She was born in Chestertown to William Thomas, Jr. and Audrey Minster. Kathy graduated from North Dorchester High School in 1967. She married William Thomas Wyatt in 1967, and later married Roger Williamson, Sr. in 1981.
Kathy spent most of her years being a homemaker, tending chickens and taking care of the elderly. Her family was everything to her. Kathy spent the last 14 years with her daughter, Alisha and her family. She enjoyed playing bingo, putting jigsaw puzzles together, reading mysteries and romances and watching dramas on TV. Her grandchildren and great-grandchildren were the apples of her eye. Her passing has left a great hole in the family dynamic, as she will be greatly missed.
