Nettie Allgood Atkins, 81, went home to be with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ on April 28, 2017 at her home at Watercrest. Born October 11, 1935 in Pendleton, SC, she was the daughter of the late John Edward and Helen Richardson Allgood.
Mrs. Atkins was a wonderful wife, mother, and grandmother, filled with such grace and love for everyone. Mrs. Atkins also was an elementary teacher during her young adult life and later worked with her husband in the real estate and development industry for forty years. She was the force behind her husband, F. Hugh Atkins’ success. She always supported fully whom she loved. Along with her support to her husband, she was the most wonderful mother. She loved her girls more than anything, always standing strong behind both of them and as a grandmother, she was wonderful to her three granddaughters. She loved them and loved to spend time with them any chance she had. She exemplified a grace filled lady, a child of God. She never said anything negative about anyone and always thought the best of others.
Along with the time she spent with her family, she loved her church, Westminster Presbyterian and was very active in circles and serving in the choir. She cooked meals for the St. Luke’s Free Medical Clinics, delivering Mobile Meals religiously, even when she was not well herself. She was a member of the garden club and loved roses and grew them abundantly. She slalomed on Lake Bowen until she was 77 for miles on end. Everyone was stunned at her energy level and athleticism. Her family always came first to her and always there to support whoever was needed.

Along with her parents, she was also predeceased by her loving husband, Franklin High Atkins of 60 years, and by her precious granddaughter, Anne Caroline Shull.
