Adrienne Victoria Rider Williams

Adrienne Victoria Rider Williams, beloved mother, sister, aunt and friend passed away Thursday, March 27, 2025, at the age of 42. Born September 22, 1982, she was the cherished daughter of Steve and Vicki Rider and a proud mother to her two sons Tucker and Crews Williams. Adrienne’s life was defined by her love for family. She fought tirelessly, especially for her boys, as she always put her loved ones first. Her devotion to her family was unwavering, and she made it known every day how deeply she cherished them. As an aunt, she was adored and affectionately known as “AA,” a title she wore with pride, spoiling her nieces and nephews with love and affection. She was also deeply protective of her brothers, always standing as a fierce and loving guardian.

Adrienne’s friends were fortunate to know her loyalty and generosity, and her warmth touched all who crossed her path. Whether at work or in her personal life, she formed lasting bonds with those who knew her, and she will be deeply missed by all.

A 2001 Newton High School graduate, Adrienne’s love for life was evident in everything she did. Adrienne also had a passion for softball, having played for her high school team, and she spent time clogging with the Dylong Express. She was also a graduate of Grady's Radiologic Technologies. As a Radiologic Technologist, Adrienne found purpose in her work, bringing care and compassion to those she served. Her dedication to her profession was only rivaled by her love for life and the joy she found in simple pleasures. She was an avid fan of Disney, and she found peace and happiness in both the mountains and the beach, often enjoying trips with family to these beloved places.

Adrienne’s loss leaves a hole in the hearts of all who knew her, but her memory will live on through the countless lives she touched. She will be remembered for her boundless love, her dedication to her family, and her fierce loyalty to those she loved.

She was preceded in death by her grandparents, Emma and Emory Bowen, Bennie and Geraldine Rider.

Survivors include her sons, Tucker and Crews Williams: Parents, Steve and Vicki Rider; brothers, Carl (Kristy) and Casey (Kati) Rider; nephews, Joseph and Lincoln Oeland, Hudson Rider; nieces, Ella, Caroline, and Emery Rider. Adrienne’s loving dog, Rudy, was a constant companion and source of joy in her life.
