Monica E. Williams
ODESSA — Monica Elizabeth Williams, 49, of Odessa died Tuesday, Oct. 21, 2003, at home. Monica was born in Rockville Center, N.Y., on Feb. 10, 1954, to Warren J. Koch and Rose Marie Koch (nee Dauscher). Monica married Terry Williams of Odessa, son of Bill and Lorene Williams, in Odessa on Aug. 16, 1985.
Monica was the sixth child of Warren and Rose Koch, a family of ten children, five brothers and five sisters. The family was raised on Long Island, N.Y., and summers in Lake Winnisquam, N.H. Monica was educated at St. Kilian grammar school, Queen of the Rosary Academy, and received a B.A. in English and Education from Ladycliff College in Highland Falls, N.Y. Upon graduation, Monica was recruited to teach elementary school in Texas.
In 1976, Monica moved to Texas and devoted the rest of her working years to teaching children in El Paso and Odessa. Monica taught at Reagan, Hays, Noel and LBJ elementary schools. She was considered by her co-workers to be one of the finest and most dedicated educators of first and second grade children in the Odessa area. Cindy Abel Brunson, a fellow teacher at Hays, recently described Monica’s incredible work ethic, kindness, sense of humor and love for children, which made her students eager to come to school and learn. She said, “Monica created a little home in her classroom complete with yellow gingham curtains, pictures, pillows and class decorations that gave some children, who didn’t have the ideal home situation, their first taste of a warm, loving home-like atmosphere.”
Monica’s whole life centered on giving to others, making them happy and laugh. She was devoted to her family, especially to her husband, Terry, and her stepson, Warren, and cherished her marriage above all else. She was in constant touch with her large Koch family scattered through the U.S., and was instrumental in organizing family reunions to bring them together. The most recent was in Ruidoso, N.M.
Monica enjoyed cooking and sharing her recipes with friends and family. She was a talented home decorator and a competitive Scrabble player. But fishing with her husband, Terry, was her favorite hobby, because she was with him and he loved it so much.
Monica and Terry are members of the Grace Christian Church. She had a strong faith that she openly proclaimed, and offered that faith and support to others in need.
She was preceded in death by her father, Warren Koch on June 18, 2001, and by her father-in-law, Bill Williams, on April 7, 1999.
Monica is survived by her Williams family, husband Terry Williams of Odessa; stepson, Warren Williams of Odessa and his wife, Ashley, son, Payton, and daughter, Lauren; mother-in-law, Lorene Williams; sister-in-law, Sandy Stein of Carrollton, Texas, and her children, Staci and Chris; sister-in-law, Billy Haughey of Double Oak, Texas, and husband, Kevin; and a large extended Williams family in Odessa, throughout Texas, and the Southwest.
She is survived by her Koch family, mother, Rose Koch of Hudson, Fla., and Lake Winnisquam, N.H.; brother, Warren Koch Jr. of Stamford, Conn., and wife, Clair, his children, Leo, Joan and Thomas, and grandchildren; sister, Bernadette Casey of Colorado Springs, Colo., and husband, Mike, her daughters, Kristina Ikeda and Carol Spear, and granddaughter, Mikaela; sister, Rosemary Dobiac of Sterling, Va., and husband, John, her children, Tim and Cindy, and grandson, Colby; sister, Teresa Koch-Bostic of Mineola, N.Y., and husband, Dave Bostic; brother, Gerald Thomas Koch of Raleigh, N.C.; sister, Rita Noble of Eugene, Ore., and husband, Steve, her daughters, Keara and Bridget Duggan; brother, Philip Koch of Commack, N.Y., and wife, Nancy Scavin; brother, Joseph Koch of Dayton, Ohio, and wife, Stephanie, his children Alex and Rachel; brother, Paul Koch and wife, Vickie, and his children, Tori, Paul, and Gabriella.
