Nancy Evelyn Veraldi Williams
We will dearly miss our loving mother, grandma, and friend, Nancy Evelyn Veraldi Williams. She was born 76 years ago to Joseph Anthony Veraldi and Katherine Hawryliw on April 26, 1947 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Nancy peacefully passed away on March 29, 2024, in her home of twenty years in Denham Springs, Louisiana. Migrating from the north to the south, she resided in Baton Rouge for many decades with her husband of 49 years. Defined by her rich Italian and unique Pennsylvania heritage, she valued time around the table feeding family and friends. Never unprepared to materialize a feast of sauce and meatballs for whoever entered her home. She kept busy in her early years with a job in human resources at Kmart. This was followed by an award-winning career in real estate with D.R. Horton, during which she sold many homes to families in Denham Springs as well as those displaced by Hurricane Katrina.
Nancy was preceded in death by her parents, Joseph and Katherine Veraldi, her husband John Hillman Williams, her brother Robert Veraldi, her younger sister, Antoinette Veraldi, and nephew EJ Veraldi. She is survived by her sister Judith Budd and sister-in-law Mary Veraldi. She will be remembered as Grandma, Nino, and a feisty, strong lady by her three children, nine grandchildren, and three great grandchildren: John Joseph and Jamie Williams, Allison and Devin Kennedy, and their son Steve, John Charles Williams; Lanita and Thomas Dedon, Michal and Bryant Bishop, Cody Dedon and fiancee Emily Miller, Megan and Jackson Pierce, Christian Dedon; Joseph Anthony and Carmen Williams, Joseph and Madeline Williams and their children Hosanna and Eliana; Abigail Williams and Benjamin Williams.
Visitation will be held at Seale Funeral Home, Denham Springs on Sunday, April 7, 2024 beginning at 1:00pm. Funeral services will be at 3:00pm with burial to follow in Denham Springs Memorial Cemetery.
The Williams family sincerely appreciates the friends, neighbors, and local community that loved Mom, cared for her, and rescued her when needed. God bless you all, and may your freezer always be full of my mother’s love language, homemade meatballs.
