Ann Peace Obituary
Ann Peace, age 85, passed away peacefully on May 25, 2026, in Banning, California. Born on August 24, 1940, in Baltimore, Maryland, she was the daughter of Waverly and Gladys Peace.
She is survived by her siblings, Abdus Salaam , Anthony Peace, Christine Peace. Ronnie Rucker,Darlene Chatman, Vickie Chatman and Michael Chatman. four devoted sons: Roland Williams Jr., Stephen Williams, Todd Williams, and Wade Williams. Her grandchildren include Tracey Williams, Kellee Williams-Smith, Jed Nguyen (son of Roland Jr.), Jennifer Williams, Robert Gant, Isabella Chavez (daughter of Stephen), Karen Williams, Erica Romero, and Elisha Williams (daughter of Wade). She was also blessed with 15 great-grandchildren. Ann was preceded in death by her brothers Alexander Peace, Roosevelt Chatman, and Maurice Chatman; her sister Elizabeth Peace; and her grandson Stephen Waverly Williams Jr.
Originally from Baltimore, Ann relocated to Banning, California, in 1974 and developed a deep affection for the community. She was profoundly committed to her church and local outreach. In Banning, she began her professional career as a nurse before transitioning to education, teaching within the Banning Unified School District. She ultimately retired as a principal, having dedicated her career to working with children from diverse backgrounds.
Ann lived a life grounded in Christ, with her identity, purpose, and daily actions informed by His teachings, love, and presence. Rather than living for herself, she dedicated her life to honoring and glorifying God. Rooted in the sacramental grace of the Church, Ann attended Mass regularly, consistently seeking forgiveness and spiritual renewal. She not only proclaimed Christ but also embodied His love through unwavering kindness and generosity without expectation of reward, making His presence tangible to those around her. Her practice of giving without seeking return exemplifies Catholic humility.
Those who knew Ann recognize her life as a compelling model of integrity and purpose. Among the many lessons she imparted over the years, her radical generosity stands out. Ann demonstrated that authentic giving is not contingent upon surplus or convenience, but is sacrificial-mirroring Christ's self-giving. In a culture that often prioritizes recognition, Ann's actions affirmed that serving God is inherently fulfilling.
