We at Ocean Lodge Resort would like to extend our deepest condolences to the family, friends, and loved ones of Kathi Williams, a beloved member of our community.
Our hearts are with everyone mourning her loss. May you find comfort in the memories you shared, strength in one another, and peace in knowing how deeply she was loved.
We will keep Kathi’s family, friends, and our entire community in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
With deepest sympathy,

It is with profoundly heavy hearts that Elegant Island Living announces the passing of our beloved Executive Editor and Production Manager Kathi Williams.

Kathi was an extraordinary woman whose creativity, dedication, warmth, and talent were woven into every page of Elegant Island Living. Through her commitment to excellence and her genuine love for the people and community she served, she made an immeasurable contribution to our magazine and to all of us who had the privilege of working alongside her.

Kathi loved life with a passion. Her enthusiasm, kindness, and beautiful spirit touched so many lives. To Elegant Island Living, she was far more than an exceptional professional—she was a cherished friend, a trusted colleague, and an integral part of our family.

We will forever be grateful for her friendship, her creativity, her laughter, and the countless memories she leaves behind. We will miss her more than words can express.

Our deepest thoughts and heartfelt condolences are with Kathi’s family, friends, and all who were fortunate enough to know and love her.

Funeral services for Kathi will be announced at a later date. We will share those details as soon as they become available.
