Anbriel Tatiana Williams

A beloved daughter, granddaughter, sister, niece, cousin and friend.  Anbriel Tatiana Williams left this world unexpectedly, at the age of 24, on August 14, 2020.  Born in Danville, IL on April 8, 1996 to L’Oriel Williams and Bobby Hansbrough. Anbriel grew up in Danville attending Meade Park Elementary School before relocating to Palmetto, FL where she attended Lincoln Middle School and then onto Grand Ledge, MI where she attended and graduated from Grand Ledge High School in 2014.

Anbriel loved the Fast n’ the Furious movie franchise and she loved everything about cars including working on them just like her Grandpa Robert.  Her love for cars originated from watching NASCAR with her Uncle Bill and Grandpa Bill. This passion was so big for Anbriel that she attended Lansing Community College taking courses to become an auto-mechanic.  Anbriel was a true foodie who loved anything from Chinese buffets with her mom to something as simple as cooking a grilled cheese sandwich or eating her mom’s cooking.  Just like many, Anbriel enjoyed playing video games like Fortnite and found music especially soothing and calming to her soul allowing her to tune out and relax.  

When you think of Anbriel, celebrate the good memories you have of her and the love that you shared with her.  Remember that life is fragile and short and should be lived to the fullest.

She was preceded in death by her grandpa, Bill Applegate, and a multitude of angels whom she will be joining.

Anbriel spent unforgettable years in Florida with her mother, nana (Christy Williams), sister (Thierry Brandon), brothers (Jaydon & Jace Slezak), uncle & aunt (Bill & Melissa Applegate) and cousins (Ashley Swilley, Katelyn Applegate, Greg Vogel).  In addition to them, she leaves behind her father, several brothers and sisters, both her paternal and maternal grandparents, and a host of aunts, uncles, cousins and friends who loved her.  

A memorial service and celebration of Anbriel’s life will be held 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m., Saturday, August 22, 2020 at Apostolic New Birth Church located at 102 West Williams Street in Danville, IL. 

In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that donations be made in Anbriel’s name to the National Alliance on Mental Illness in Champaign County (NAMI Champaign) at namichampaign.org or to the Apostolic New Birth Church.
