Wilhelmina Marcialette Williams was born to Sylvester and Eva Gibson on October 31, 1939. She was the second child born to the union; she had two siblings. At a very young age, "Mena", as we all affectionately called her, accepted Christ by joining Paradise Baptist Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma, under the preceding Rev. J.C. Jackson and the late Rev. Prince Maxwell. Her Christian footsteps led her to participate in activities and serve at Paradise Baptist Church.
Mrs. Williams attended Beggs Public Schools for her education, graduating from Wheatley High School, Class of 1957. She earned a B.A. degree at Lincoln University in Jefferson City, Missouri, and earned her Master's degree at Northeastern State College in Tahlequah, Oklahoma. "Mena" was a sorority member of "Delta Sigma Theta".
"Mena" was married to the preceding Theopolis Williams, Sr., and from this union one son was born, Theopolis Lamorris Williams Jr. Wilhelmina later married John Warner. She was employed as a social worker for 40 years with the Department of Human Services and held the position of Supervisor of the AFDC later. Wilhelmina was a charter member of the Les Belle Ames Ladies Social Club, and achieved a lot by serving.
