Abby was born on June 19, 2000, in Dumas, TX to Johnny and Stacy (Johnson) Widener. At a young age, the family would move to Ghana, Africa to serve the Lord in the mission field. Abby grew up for the majority of her life in Ghana and developed a special place in her heart for the country and the people. The family later moved back to Dumas where she completed her education, ran cross country and graduated from Dumas High School. Abby always had a smile on her face and loved to make me people laugh. She was known for always having her makeup on just perfect before she would go anywhere. In her younger years, she would hide behind her mother’s skirt and adopted the title of her mother’s shadow. Abby was a very determined young lady and had big dreams, her goal being to become a surgeon. She was a member of the Bible Baptist Church and will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her.
Abby is survived by her parents, Pastor Johnny Widener and wife Stacy of Dumas; siblings: Rachael Widener of Amarillo, TX, Becky Widener of Amarillo, TX, Jonathan Widener, wife Emilee and their child Jaylee of Amarillo, TX, Hannah Lewis and husband Austin of Dumas, TX; grandparents: Dale and Alice Widener of Dumas, TX and Lewis and Nancy Johnson of Dumas, TX; uncles: Jeff Widener and wife Dora of Amarillo, TX and Jerry Johnson and wife Wendy of Parker, CO; a host of cousins and extended family members.
The family suggests with gratitude that memorials be made to The Bible Baptist Church Ghana Mission Fund, 212 W 1st Street, Dumas TX 79029.
