The Myrtle Beach community, along with family and friends across Alabama and beyond, is mourning the heartbreaking loss of S. Kharin Williams, who passed away on Wednesday, May 27, 2026, at Grand Strand Regional Medical Center in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
Her passing has left those who knew her in profound grief. “This one hurts, and simply doesn’t make sense,” shared a close friend. “Her girls, her family, and her friends all need her! God, please give us strength and peace. Rest well, Kharin Humble Williams, we love you, and will be looking out for your girls.”
Friends recall Kharin as a vibrant, energetic, and authentic presence. “This hurts more than words can express. Since the day we met at the IRS Tax Forum in Baltimore last year, you told me I could never get rid of you. From that moment on, we connected as if we had known each other forever. Your energy was contagious, crazy, fun, outgoing, authentic, and just an overall dope person to be around. We laughed, talked, shared dreams, and made plans. Who would have thought that my trip to Alabama to come visit you would never happen?”
Her friend added, “This is truly heartbreaking and tragic. Thank you for the memories, the laughs, and for being exactly who you were. Your presence left an impact that will never be forgotten. Rest well, sis. You will be deeply missed and forever remembered.”
Funeral arrangements for Ms. Williams are currently incomplete and will be announced at a later date through Smith and Gaston Funeral Home of Birmingham, Alabama. Family, friends, and community members are encouraged to stay updated through the funeral home for official service details.
