Orpha loved to garden, she took great joy from canning and caring for her family; always seeing the good in others. She had a wonderful sense of humor, but nothing was more important to her than her seven children. To some, it may seem, that her children took care of her. But until the end, she was making sure that they ate, had enough cover on their beds, and in at night with the doors locked. She was an amazing woman and the true definition of the word mother.
Surviving are her children: Darrell "Tony" Woodby and wife Marina of Spruce Pine, Dennis Woodby, Rose Woodby, Daphny Woodby, Mary Alice Woodby, and Melanie Murphy and husband Max, all of Burnsville; seven grandchildren: Christy Hill (Drew), Cody Woodby, Amanda Woodby, Amy Woodby, Kenneth Woodby (Sarah), Samantha Murphy, and Shane Murphy; three great-grandchildren: Dahlia, Davian and Anniston.
