Mary Williamson Olliff, died June 27, 2024, was born March 6, 1933, in 
Excel, Alabama to Snowden Thomas Williamson and Clara Vickery 
Williamson. Mary lived first in Excel, then moved to Greenville, 
Alabama. When Mary entered high school, the family moved to Montgomery 
where she met her future husband, Martin T. Olliff, Jr.. After Mary 
graduated from Alabama College, later called the University of 
Montevallo, she married Martin and they moved to New Jersey where Martin 
already had a job. After five years, they decided they wanted to return 
to the South and moved to Huntsville, Alabama.

with the City, taught Sunday School and Vacation Bible School, lead Cub 
Scouts and Brownies for all four of her children (as well as many 
neighborhood children), volunteered at schools for her children and the 
other children. She was a volunteer for the Senior Citizens of 
Huntsville and taught as a long term substitute teacher. Later in her 
life, she became a real estate agent and also became a real estate 
broker, owning her own Century 21 Franchise. She also taught real estate 
classes and helped many other people in countless ways.
