CA$H MONEY SUFFERS TRAGIC LOSS
Ca$h Money’s founding brothers, Bryan “Baby” William and Ronald “Slim” Williams, are mourning today as their younger sister, 26-year-old Tamara Williams, was killed in a car accident in New Orleans early Monday morning. The accident occurred shortly after midnight when Tamara’s 2006 Toyota Camry was struck head-on by a motorist driving in the wrong direction on Causeway Boulevard in Metarie, a suburb of New Orleans. At the time of her death, Tamara was studying nursing at Our Lady of Holy Cross College. Despite her famous brothers’ financial success and flashy lifestyles, friends and family remembered Tamara for her humbleness. “That’s why she went to school and was getting her second degree. She wanted her own accomplishments,” classmate Erika Martin told The Times Picayune. Tamara leaves behind a husband and three children. A rep at Universal Records, which distributes Ca$h Money Records, told BET.com that members of the tight-knit family were unavailable for comment.
