Julie-Beth died suddenly Thursday September 8, 2022 at her home in Cookeville.

She was born January 18, 1980 in Nashville, TN to Robert A. "Bobby" Williams, Jr. and Deborah Anne Bowman Williams.

She was a 1998 graduate of Cookeville High School, earned a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Tennessee in 2003 and a Master of Science in Nursing from Emory University in 2006.

From the day she was born, Julie-Beth’s family knew her as a princess and her parents considered her as one all of her days. Julie-Beth loved easily, and was easy to love.

Julie-Beth proudly served her family, friends, and community through many roles – which she did with grace and great joy. Julie-Beth was the dedicated bride of Brandon, the loving sister of B-Bob, and a loyal friend. Though loved ones knew her by many names; JB, Jabes, JuJu, JuBeth, Bae Bae, Peanut – her favorite name to be called was Mom by her three children; Will Henry, Annie Blake, and Parker. Being their mother brought her the greatest joys of her life.

Her love for her family and friends was apparent to all who knew her – and all who knew her loved her.

She was preceded in death by maternal grandparents, Mary Christine Bowman and Wilson Tucker and by paternal grandparents, Robert A. and Ethel Stamps Williams.

In addition to her parents, Julie-Beth is survived by her husband of 13 years, Brandon Boyd; children, Will Henry Boyd, Annie Blake Boyd and Parker Cole Boyd; brother, B-Bob Williams and wife, Emily; nieces, Josie Kate Williams, Maya Belle Williams, Addie Vincent, Jaxson Vincent; many aunts and uncles; and by a host of cousins. She is also survived by her father and mother-in-law, George D. Boyd, D.V.M. and Darla Stamps Boyd; and by her brother-in-law, Corey Boyd.

Lee Williams, David Williams, Buck Bowman, John Lewis, Chase McMillan, Adam Noonkester, Michael Joyce, Robert Maxwell, Justin Cumby, and Wade Wheaton will serve as pallbearers.
