Eldonna Summers Williamson, 70, of Elkton, MD passed away Friday, November 24, 2023. Born in Terre Haute, IN on February 3, 1953, she was the daughter of the late Eldon E. and Edna L. Summers.

Ms. Williamson graduated with her master's degree and retired as an engineer at DuPont. She traveled extensively in her position at DuPont to places like Japan and England. After her retirement she bought a house in Scotland where she liked to hike the countryside. Elly was a Renaissance woman who played multiple instruments, wrote professionally, painted, was an expert in the Myers-Briggs personality types; she taught as a professor at University of Delaware.

She enjoyed gardening and maintaining her homestead. Her passion was rescuing and housing senior dogs. She has left her home as a sanctuary for animals in need. Elly loved sports, college and pro; she was a diehard Eagles fan.

Elly inspired many. People found themselves drawn to her and her fascinating life. After surviving breast cancer, she volunteered at the center where she was treated and helped with studies, analyzing and collecting data. Some of her closest friends are those she met in a shared breast cancer journey. Those who navigated Elly through her journey, developed a deep respect and admiration for the woman she was. Elly believed in shared learning and was a compassionate human being. She regularly posted inspirational quotes on her Facebook page with her artwork.

Survivors include her sister, Brenda Marks, North Fort Meyers, FL, and nieces.
