Survivors include her much loved granddaughter Taylor Sloan of Knoxville, TN who Marie was very proud of. Other survivors include her daughter-in-law Donna Sloan of Knoxville, TN; her stepson Jim Woodworth and wife Sally of Blairsville, GA; her stepdaughter Anne Woodworth of Florence, AL; and her step-grandson Chris Woodworth of Blairsville, GA. All her life Marie enjoyed her extended family including many nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews.

Marie worked at textile plants and at Colonial Manor Hospital in housekeeping for many years. She was of the Church of Christ faith.

She loved feeding people and was an excellent cook known for her coconut cakes, peanut brittle and many other dishes. She was devoted to her family, loved babies and children, loved to travel, especially the Smoky Mountains, and was known to break out into a buck dance when the music was right!

A loving thank you to special caregivers Bonnie Davis, June Phillips, and Jean Thornton for the years of excellent loving care they gave Marie. And to Anne, her loving stepdaughter, who served as Marie’s care coordinator, her constant companion, her voice, her entertainer, her friend, her daughter.

A graveside service with masks and social distancing will be on Saturday, October 17th at 10:00 a.m. Graveside Service in Greenview Memorial Gardens, Chisholm Road, Florence, AL. Donations may be given to a favorite charity or to Cross Point Church of Christ In House Benevolence Fund, 1350 Cox Creek Parkway, Florence, AL 35633.
