Our Mama was the strongest woman that ever lived. After the tragic loss of her first husband, she was left with four small children and one on the way. We are forever grateful for her sacrifice and love to keep us all together. She was a strong Christian lady who served the Lord faithfully. She was loved by so many who enjoyed her pound cakes and her funny stories. We left her with our words as she was going to be with her Lord and Savior, "You were the best Mama and MawMaw." We loved you dearly and will miss you so. She leaves a huge void in our hearts.
Pallbearers will be Johnny Mills, Ralph Clayton, Dennis Hilbun, Allen Kelly, Andy Kelly, Brad Kimbrell, Trent Kimbrell and Alan Vance.
Honorary Pallbearers are members of Flatwoods Baptist Church and Ethelsville Baptist Church, Pickens County friends, members of Pickens County WMU Association, Dr. Kemp and staff, Dr. Pandy and Amedisys Home Health.
In lieu of flowers the family suggest memorials to Flatwoods Baptist Church, 4520 70th Avenue, Northport, AL 35473.
