Zoe Lane Williamson

With profound heartbreak, we share the passing of our sweet Zoe Lane Williamson, age 16, of Lonoke, Arkansas. Zoe was a bright, kind-hearted young woman whose warm spirit touched everyone who knew her.

A student at Lonoke High School, Zoe was involved in school life and was especially proud to be a member of the Lonoke High School Band, where she played the flute with grace and dedication. Music brought her joy and she loved going to the beach. 

Zoe is survived by her mother, Chasity (Paul): her grandparents, Steve and Laura Murphy; her siblings, Kit, Hayden, and Trinity; and several aunts, an uncle, and cousins who cherished her deeply. She leaves behind a family who adored her and countless friends who will forever hold her memory close.

Throughout the ups and downs of adolescence, Zoe worked hard to find balance and belonging. She carried hopes for the future—dreams of going to college, traveling the world, and making a difference wherever she went. Her determination, curiosity, and compassion gave those dreams real shape, and those who loved her could see the bright future she envisioned.

Zoe cherished her friendships deeply and is lovingly remembered by her best friends and other friends who shared countless memories and laughter with her. She leaves behind a lot of family who loved her more than words can express and who will carry her memory in their hearts forever.
