APRIL 9, 1914 – DECEMBER 8, 2019

At a young age the family moved to Lamar County and settled in the Gadston Community.

Survivors include two daughters, Bobbie McFadden and Sybil Martin, a son, Jimmy Don Preston & wife Bobbie, thirteen grandchildren, numerous great grandchildren, great great grandchildren and many nieces & nephews. Her grandsons will serve as casket bearers.
