Onjahnique Williams

As beautiful as a rose to see, was her life she lived so gracefully.  She made things precious by her touch; her selfless love lives on in each of us.  The petals of her life fell one by one; each a gift of her heart till there were none.  Yet her radiance blooms once again in fields of glory with no end.

As a child, she was rambunctious, full of life, and had a loving and caring personality.  She was a true girly, girl. She loved playing with Bratz and Barbie dolls and going to the movies. She also loved roughhousing with her male cousins, which made her one tough cookie. Her favorite movies were Caroline and Nightmare Before Christmas, which she would watch almost every day..  She enjoyed sports, as well, and was involved in gymnastics, swimming, volleyball, and soccer.  She was a Colorado Starlite for a couple of years and performed at various events like the Parade of Lights and Juneteenth.

Onjahnique received her fundamental education by attending several schools within DPS, such as, Hallett Elementary, Whiteman Elementary, Wyatt Edison, Bruce Randolph, Prep Academy and North High School.
