Ebony Omecca Jenkins-Williamson

The sunset on the life of our beloved Ebony Omeeka Jenkins-Williamson, on December 04, 2018 at Tri-Star Centennial Medical Center in Nashville, TN. Ebony was born September 09, 1978 to the late, Barbara Jenkins and Gary Tucker. She was the youngest of six children birthed by her mother. She so enjoyed her position as “The Baby” of the family. She grew up in East Nashville and attended Stratford High School. Ebony professed her faith in GOD at an early age. She enjoyed singing in the choir with family and friends. No matter her circumstances her faith never wavered. She knew GOD was with her.

While her mother worked, a watchful eye was kept by her grandmother the late, Carrie Lee Thomas. Ebony embodied her spirit in so many ways. Upon her passing, Ebony picked up the torch and her home became the family gathering spot. She was the host to many holiday gatherings, birthdays, super bowls parties, or just an ole pop-up barbecue. She loved being with family and friends while listening to music and eating good food. All who knew her; knew she had a sweet tooth that could not wait.

Ebony was a hard working woman. This was something that had been instilled in her by her parents. She began working in her teens. She landed a position at Dell Computers when they opened a plant in Nashville, TN. Upon their closing; Ebony began to seek employment elsewhere, no job was too big or too small for her to tackle. She was last employed at Centennial Hospital Dietary Department. She was a stellar employee wherever she worked.

Not too many people can say they married their childhood sweetheart, but Ebony did. Michael and Ebony began dating in 1989 when he moved next door to her family home on Creighton Avenue. They were inseparable with each other. So it was no surprise when they made it official on July 30, 2016. Ebony and Michael were blessed with their son, Montrey Eugene Williamson. April 28, 2013, she gave birth to their baby girl, Mya Nevaeh Williamson, who was ushered to heaven upon her arrival.

Awaiting her arrival at the gates of Heaven daughter, Mya Neveah Williamson; mother, Barbara Jenkins; grand parents, Edward and Carrie Lee Thomas, John and Maddie Tucker; father in law, Author Savage just to name a few.
