The only child born to the late Georgia Chappelear Denny and the late Julian Pierce Denny, Dot was a lifelong resident of Wrens. After graduating from Wrens High School, she attended Andrew College. She married the love of her life at the age of 19; and worked at local establishments in Wrens and Louisville—Fleming Drug Company, Dr. Pilcher’s office in Wrens, etc.—before starting a 35-year career as a case worked for the Georgia Department of Family and Children Services (DFCS) in Louisville. As a young girl, she faithfully served her Lord and Savior in the fellowship of Wrens United Methodist Church and was their oldest living member. Dot was also an active member of the John Franklin Wren Chapter of NSDAR. When her health declined five years ago, she became a resident of the Home Place in Louisville, moving the Old Capitol a few months ago after a fall. Dot was a very sociable person and enjoyed her outings at Peggy’s in Wrens, talking with old friends and meeting new friends. She loved genealogy and history, especially the history of Jefferson County, and always wanted to know about people and their lineage. Dot was a sincere, caring lady who kept the old Southern ways—well-dressed and mannerly in her approach. She adored her family and was most content in their presence. This Godly woman will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
The family will receive friends at James Funeral Home Thursday afternoon, October 25, 2018 from 1:00-3:00 P.M. prior to the services.
Memorial contributions may be made to Wrens UMC, 202 Russell Street, Wrens, GA 30833 or to The John Franklin Wren Chapter—Howard Manor Fund, c/o Beth Stone Usry, 107 East Quaker Rd, Wrens, GA 30833.
