Trina Louise Ellis was born to the late Lonnie and Christine Williams on March 16, 1959. She departed this earthly life on Sunday, December 11, 2022.
Reflections of a beautiful woman who raised four children sternly under the stewardship of God. She protected, nurtured, guided, and disciplined them all, sharing life learned lessons but always pointing them in the direction of the Father. She would always say "We were all dealt a hand in life, it's up to you how you wanna play your hand" She was a mother who gave the best to her children always from a place of love! God thank you for her wisdom, courage, victories, and defeats.
Trina received her education from Dallas ISD. Later receiving multiple certifications through the Bill J. Priest Institute. It was there in which she discovered her passion to become a Home Health Aid to many around the DFW area for over 20 years. She later became employed with the Internal Revenue Service where she worked diligently for 23 years until her passing. She was a faithful member of Marsalis Avenue Missionary Baptist Church where she was an usher and head stewart of all thing's hospitality. She had a passion for cooking and was known for knowing her way around the kitchen. She was highly spoken of near and far for her skills of presentation and making an idea come to life with food.
Trina leaves to cherish in her memory: three children Alshawn (LaQunna LaSha) Perry, of Red Oak, TX, LaToya Perry & Kimberly Ellis both of Dallas, TX: two sisters Carol Craven & Donna Williams both of Dallas, TX : fourteen grandchildren:, one great-grandchild, and a host of nieces, nephews & friends.
