Jan Carrie Williams, 81, of Newton Falls, passed away peacefully at her home on Friday, March 27, 2026. She was born on November 25, 1944, the daughter of Robert and Betty Blineberry.

Jan was a graduate of Ravenna High School and went on to dedicate many years of service to General Electric, retiring in 2001.

On March 8, 1968, Jan C. Blineberry and William R. Williams were united in marriage. Together, they raised their three children, Tim, Carey, and Cristy.

Jan valued both her family and the friendships she maintained throughout her life. She enjoyed time at the campground and spent many years wintering in, and later living in, Lake Okeechobee, Florida, where she formed lasting friendships. In later years, she especially appreciated the companionship and care she received from her aide, Debbie, who became a valued part of her daily life.

Wonderful memories of Jan will be carried on by her loving daughters, Carey (Jim Luketic) Williams and Cristy (Ken) North; her adored grandchildren, Ryan Sells, Danielle (Brett) Mitzel, Josephine (Alan) Ahart, Amanda Stephens, and Ashley Stephens; her great-grandchildren including, Emmett Mitzel and Cape Ahart, and an expected great-granddaughter; her sister, Jill (Mike) McGuigan; and her many friends.

Preceding Jan in death were her parents; her beloved husband, Bill; her son, Tim; and her longtime companion, her cat, Goofy.

In honoring her wishes, no services will be held, and a private family burial will take place. The family requests that those wishing to honor Jan’s memory may do so through contributions to Good Sams Helping Hands Rescue in Newton Falls, goodsamshelpinghandsrescue.org, P.O.
