She was born May 19, 1930, to Charlie and Sophie Bailey. Her mother died when she was 1, and she was raised by her mother's sister and her husband, Elizabeth and Walter Williams, in Angoon. She spent the rest of her life there.
She worked in the canneries and later became a fisher on the seiner Mary D with her husband. She also worked as an alcohol counselor, a Tlingit storyteller and was past president of the Angoon Alaska Native Sisterhood camp. She spent many years on the advisory school board in Angoon.
Her hobbies included gathering subsistence foods, such as clams, gumboots and game, and putting them away for the winter. She collected china, angels and antiques, and before she got sick, her passion was taking care of her home. She took great pride in taking care of the picnic grounds at the Killisnoo harbor, near the cemetery where she was laid to rest.
Her family wrote that she "is greatly missed by her family and friends."
