WILLIAMS, JANE CROUCH - a prominent member of both the Seymour and LaFollette communities and a clinical social worker beloved by patients, friends and family alike as "Mama Jane," died Monday, January 16th, of complications of a heart condition. Mrs. Williams, the daughter of noted Smoky Mountains naturalist and Knoxville florist Brockway Crouch and Elsie Crouch, was 80. Mrs. Williams brought her irrepressible compassion, generosity and service to others to her role as a clinical supervisor for Ridgeview Psychiatric Mental Services in Lafollette, where she worked to help her clients reenter society. For many years, Mrs. Williams lived in Seymour, where her former husband, the late Dr. James B. Bell, conducted his family medical practice. She was a fixture at Seymour High School community and athletic events, many of which featured the couple's four children. Mrs. Williams returned to school in mid-life, graduating at 54 from the University of Tennessee with highest honors, and a chancellor's citation for extraordinary professional promise. She was also a first-rate genealogist, providing hefty volumes of research to family and friends. She was a lead researcher for the Goddard Historical & Genealogical Society, and her own Goddard family roots went back to 18th century East Tennessee. Mrs. Williams was proud of a new book about her father, "Brockway Crouch, A Naturalist's Life," on which she collaborated with author Paul James. She was a member of Daughters of the American Revolution, First Families of Tennessee and a 50-year member of the East Tennessee Historical Society, Knoxville. Mrs. Williams lived her faith in Christ, demonstrating love to those whom she counseled, and often helped her pastor in ministering to hurting families and individuals. She faithfully served in churches where she took up residence, including Jacksboro United Methodist Church. An American flag was flown in her honor at the U.S. Embassy Annex in Kabul, Afghanistan on the day that she passed, January 16th, where her son, Joe Bell, is working. Mrs. Williams was preceded in death by her parents, Brockway and Elsie Crouch; her former husband, Dr. James B. Bell; and her husband, Don Williams, a decorated U.S.Army staff sergeant and combat veteran of both the Korean and Vietnam Wars. She is survived by son, Steve Bell and his wife, Kay, granddaughter, Gretchen Bell McCabe and her husband Jimmy McCabe, and great granddaughters, Sequoia Kimberly McCabe and Mekah Rae McCabe; daughter, Sharon Trotter, her husband Jim, and grandchildren Carrie Mann and James Mann, III and his wife, Rebecca; son, Joe Bell and his wife, Kelly, granddaughter Rachel Jones and her husband David Jones, and great grandson Brockway Jones, granddaughter Jenny Bell and her partner Brittany and daughter Marley Spears; son, Robert Bell and his wife, Meg, grandchildren Rebekah Leigh Randall and her husband Seth, Jordan Andrew Bell and Alyssa Christine Bell. She is also survived by dearest friends, Malcolm and Susan King and step sons William and Troy Williams. 
Mrs. Williams donated her body to Quillen College of Medicine, East Tennessee State University. A memorial service will be held in March. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made in her memory to the non-profit Ijams Nature Center, 2915 Island Home Avenue, Knoxville, TN 37920-2738.

TIDWELL, WILMA ELIZABETH ROBERTS - was born to parents Joe and Bessie Roberts, in Browns Creek, KY, on Friday, January 9, 1931. Wilma joined brothers and sisters, Dave, John, Charlie, Walter, Cora, Flora, Rose, Lillian, Jean, and later baby brother Lloyd was born. Wilma was preceded in death by her parents, brothers, and sisters and, at the age of 81 years and six days, was the last member of her family to depart. Wilma was a graduate of Rockhold High School. Shortly thereafter she came to Jellico and went to work at the old Jellico Hospital. Wilma could tell many stories of working there with Doctors Ausmus, Watts, Prater, and others. Wilma helped bring expert care to many individuals and learned all about nursing while on the job. She had received a nursing scholarship but met James Tidwell, Jr. in 1948 after his return from World War II Service in the US Navy. They married on October 15, 1949 and were together for nearly fifty years when Junior passed on July 28, 1999. Junior and Wilma had three children: Susan Jane Tidwell Norton Brown of Mud Creek, KY, (husband Dale), William Ray Tidwell (wife Cheryl) of Jellico, TN, and Mark Joseph Tidwell (wife Yvonne) of Highcliff, TN. Wilma has six grandchildren to whom she was known as "Mammy": Leslie Raychelle Tipton (husband Kevin) of Knoxville, TN, Erica Renee Elliott (husband Jason) of Clinton, TN, William Travis Tidwell of Jellico, TN, Matthew Jonathan Norton of Mud Creek, KY, Heather Rose Norton of Knoxville, TN, and Rebekah Jo Tidwell of Highcliff, TN. Wilma has two great grandchildren: Dalton Kade Tipton of Knoxville, TN, and Norah Kate Elliot of Clinton, TN. Wilma has one step-great grandchild: Kevin Tipton, Jr. of Knoxville, TN. Wilma led an extraordinarily active and full life until her passing on January 15, 2012, surrounded by her entire family at the University of TN Medical Center. Wilma substituted school for many years, was a homemaker, caretaker, and volunteered many hours at Jellico Public Library. Wilma was a most faithful member of Jellico United Methodist Church, where she served as choir director until her passing. Wilma never desired much for worldly treasure. Her children and grandchildren, family and friends, were what her entire life revolved around. Wilma was a devout fan of the Kentucky Wildcats, often laughing that "Junior married a Wildcat!" Some of her best times in life were spent with her brothers and sisters cheering for the University of Kentucky Wildcats. Wilma loved helping others, visiting the sick, singing the songs she had written, "spirited" discussion, driving her car wherever and whenever she pleased, in any weather, and attending every local event that occurred. Wilma was always on the go and was known affectionately by many all over the area as "Momma" or "Big Momma" Tidwell (though she was a petite lady). Wilma had a burning desire in her heart to serve her Lord and Savior and never limited her enthusiasm to just one church body. She attended many churches around the area. Her love for praising God through song and testimony shall be sorely missed by her family and a tremendous circle of friends and acquaintances. Funeral Services will be held 8:00 p.m., Thursday, January 19, 2012 at Jellico United Methodist Church in Jellico, TN, with Rev. Mahan Archer and Rev. Johnny Walker officiating. Visitation will be at the church, Thursday from 5:00 p.m. till the funeral hour. Burial 10:30 a.m., Friday, January 20, 2012, in the Perkins Cemetery at Browns Creek, Whitley County, KY.
