Susan

Williams

Susan Louise “Sue” Williams, age 85, passed away peacefully on November 2, 2026, at the Dearborn, Michigan home she shared with her husband, Dave, for 56 years.

Born in Jackson, Michigan, on December 2, 1940, Sue was the daughter of the late James and Dorotha (Morehouse) Densmore. A longtime Dearborn resident, she attended Whitmore-Bolles Elementary, Edison Junior High—where she first met Dave—and graduated from Edsel Ford High School. She went on to attend Central Michigan University, earning a bachelor’s degree in education.

After briefly teaching fifth grade, Sue found her true professional home at Ford Motor Company. She dedicated more than 30 years to the company in accounting and payroll, serving across both the Dearborn Rouge Plant and the Wixom Assembly Plant.

Faith and family were the cornerstones of Sue’s life. She attended the First Presbyterian Church of Dearborn since age seven, married Dave there, and this past summer celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary there. Over the decades, she served her church community faithfully as a deacon, nursery school teacher, and active volunteer.

In her free time, Sue loved playing cards, bowling, traveling, attending Bible study, and cheering enthusiastically from the stands at her family’s sporting events. Her greatest joy was simply caring for her children, grandchildren, and great-grandson.

Sue was preceded in death by her parents and her brother, Richard Densmore.

She is survived by her devoted husband, David; her children, Kelly Brushaber, and Todd Williams (Sarah King); her grandchildren, Dayle (Ethan) Jones, Delaney Williams, Tyson Williams, and Quinton Williams; her great-grandson, Lincoln Jones; and many extended family members and dear friends.

A memorial service will be held at 2:00 PM on Saturday, November 28, 2026, at the First Presbyterian Church of Dearborn (600 N. Brady Rd, Dearborn, MI), followed by a celebration of life from 3:00 to 5:00 PM at the church.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made in Sue’s honor to First Presbyterian Church of Dearborn (https://onrealm.org/firstpresdearborn/-/form/give/now) or Angela Hospice (https://angelahospice.org/donate/).
