Comella Joy (Sis) Williams, 80, passed away at home peacefully while sleeping, 
surrounded by her loving family on Saturday, April 11, 2015. Her family was blessed to 
witness the miracle of her soul part from this life into the arms of our Lord and Savior 
and into the arms of so many patiently waiting family members and friends. What a 
sight, such a glorious reunion in Heaven. She always did look forward to reunions. 
Visitation will be held at Elliott-Hamil Funeral Home, 542 Hickory St. on Thursday, April 
16, 2015 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Funeral services will be 11:00 a.m. at the 
Elliott-Hamil Chapel of Memories on Saturday, April 18, 2015 with burial following at 
Fort Phantom Cemetery. Her grandchildren will serve as pallbearers.

 She was born on June 4, 1934, in Brown County to Oliver David “O.D.’ and Cullen 
Comella “Tommy” Nichols. Comella attended school in Nugent and graduated from 
Lueders in 1952. She was a very hard worker plowing fields, tending oil leases, fixing 
the cars, owning and operating several restaurants and always had time to curl the 
hair of her daughters. Comella could do it all. With a kind heart and a big smile, she 
loved and helped everyone. She loved “her” Dallas Cowboys and playing cards with 
her “sisters”. She will be missed. She was the best “little granny” and the “greatest 
momma” in the world. Till we meet again.

 She was preceded in death by her parents; a son, James David (Jimmy) Vinson; a 
daughter, Lana Rae Vinson; a great-grandson, Bryson Pate Hewitt; a sister, Audie 
Lucille (Tiny) Nichols; brothers, Doyle Nichols, Harvey Nichols, and Tommy Nichols; 
and a son-in-law, Richard Guerrero.
