Roger that ... RIP.

Prayers for Dr. Walter Williams and his family.

May she rest in peace.

[Mrs. P]

Did you hear the break spots she did once for the program when he was on? They were absolutely hysterical. She said she had one thing to say to all the female listeners, and that was to keep away from her man!

I know she had to be a wonderful woman. I'm so sad for Dr. Williams and his family.

[eleni121]

Dr. Williams-—our prayers are with you.

You have inspired many of my students...God Bless You and your family.

[bannie]

oooooooooo, I LIKE Walter Williams!

[Lead Moderator]

Prayers up!

[fanfan]

Are you sure you’re not thinking of Mark Belling?

[rockabyebaby]

Um, this isn't about you.....there's a time and place for criticism, this is NOT the time or place to criticize a man who just lost his wife. Sheesh.

[DUH]

RIP ... Prayers up for the family. I’ve known a lot of families, including my own, who have suffered loss during the Holidays. God Bless us all. Please.

God Bless you, FRiend.

I know it’s not the same thing, but I had to put my 15 year old German Sheppard down this afternoon.

[Clint N. Suhks]

I can’t find an obituary or death report at any paper in Philadelphia or DC.

December 30, 2007 Connie Williams, RIP Posted by Lew Rockwell at December 30, 2007 09:18 PM From Professor Walter Williams: "It is with great sadness that I inform you that Connie, my friend of 50 years and my wife of nearly 48 years, died peacefully yesterday, December 29th. The day after Christmas she had a very minor fall. After the fall she said that she felt okay and we proceeded to eat dinner which went normally. After dinner she felt a bit strange and made an effort to get up from the chair. That was when the effect of the fall started taking place. Within a few minutes, she became totally verbally unresponsive. I called 911. The paramedics arrived quickly and she was helicoptered to University of Pennsylvania trauma center. It turned out that the fall was enough to cause a severe subdural hematoma. She underwent emergency surgery. The neurosurgeon’s prognosis both before and after the surgery was not promising at all. Devyn, who had just left to return to Los Angeles, where she now lives, returned the next day. Connie made me promise there would be no funeral or memorial services for her and I intend to abide by those wishes. She always said that our 35 years in our home in Devon, Pennsylvania, have been the happiest of her life. Therefore, her wish was to be cremated and her remains scattered about our property so that she will always be here. I have lost a dear wife and friend and the person whose partnership with me accounts for much of our success. Devyn has lost a loving mother. And you’ve lost a delightful friend." (Thanks to Brian Wilson.)

Awful.. Prayers for Mr. Williams and his family.

[Shady]

Poor Mrs. Williams. Dr. Williams, my prayers to you and your family. You are a good man.

[LibFreeOrDie]

Check out the “Good Housewife Guide” Walter posted on his Web site. Notice the underlined portions. Yes, Mrs. Williams was a saint!

I am a huge Dr. Williams fan and loved the way he would speak of “Mrs. WIlliams [having] something to say about that.” Prayers for the Williams family.

[fanfan]

Friend of 50 years bump.

[LucyJo]

Perhaps this can be read more easily. This could be the reason there has been no death notice in the paper.
