Mary Frances (Williams) Coker Stacy, age 76, peacefully passed away Sunday, February 15, 2015, following a long and courageous battle with ALS. She was born on January 3, 1939 in Sleeper, Missouri, and graduated from Marion C. Early High School in Morrisville, Missouri. After receiving her certification in cosmetology, she worked in the Billings/Republic area for more than four decades, including 18 years in Hair Illusions. She was a skilled stylist and everybody's favorite friend. She loved country music, especially Alan Jackson; she could sing with the best of them; and she looked forward to weekends and kicking up her feet at area dances. She had a green thumb for flowers, a creative eye for decorating and fashion, and a special place in her heart for her little dog, Baxter.
She was preceded in death by: her mother, Hazel Williams Pruitt; her father, John E. Williams; sisters, Mabel Williams, Pat Angst, and Linda Harter; a brother, William E. Williams, Sr.; an aunt, Ardith Williams; an uncle, Farrell Williams; and a husband, Bill Coker
She is survived by: her husband of 22 years, Dale Stacy; her only daughter, Michelle Coker Campbell; her son-in-law, John Campbell, and her beloved granddaughter, Megan Campbell; seven special grandchildren and five great-grandchildren of various locations; her sisters, Mildred Mack, Lois Jean Lacey and husband James; her brothers and spouses, Robert and Clarice Williams, Sonny and Sue Pruitt, and Danny Joe and Linda Pruitt; her brother-in-law, Robert Harter. Everyone who met or worked with Mary loved her genuine smile and can-do attitude.
