Graveside services will be held at 9 A.M. on Saturday, July 17, 2021 at the Robinson Baptist Church Cemetery. The Reverend James Ray Lawrence will officiate. Hartman-Jones Funeral Home is in charge of the arrangements.
Mrs. White was born November 11, 1954 in San Angelo, Texas the daughter of the late Waylon and Myra Stegall Lewis. She and E.O. White, Jr. were married July 1, 1972 and were happily married for 32 years before his death on December 3, 2004. In addition to her parents and husband, she was also preceded in death by by her grandparents, Will and Vera Lewis of the Pulaski Community in Morton, Mississippi and the Reverend C.O. and Pauleen Stegall of the Thompson Community in Smithdale. Her in-laws: E.O White, Sr. and Rossiebell White of Peoria. Brother-in-law and sister-in-law: John and Faye Massingale of Carrolton, Texas and Donnie and Cissy Caston of New Orleans, Louisiana. One brother Jimmy Lewis and one sister, Kay Lewis Smith and husband, Avery of McComb.
She is survived by her two children: Son, Jason White and wife, Christina of Peoria, Mississippi and daughter, Rossie Johnson and husband, Robert of Lakeland, Florida. Three grandchildren, Shelby White of Hammond, Louisiana; Cade White of Peoria; and Chloe Boyd Anderson and husband, Kevin of Hinesville, Georgia. One brother, Bill Lewis and wife, Kim of Mountain View, Arkansas. A host of beloved nieces, nephews, cousins, and all of her many "adopted" children whom she helped rear and had the pleasure to love. A very special cousin who was like a sister to her, Judy Ponson of Prairieville, Louisiana.
Mrs. White was an avid gardener and artist. Her home, yard, and Amite River camp house and cemetery are where she spent most of her time. She loved to travel in her later years and had a special love for Hot Springs, Arkansas and the low county of the Carolinas and Georgia.
Her grandchildren were her biggest blessings, and she was very proud of the three of them. She spent many years cheering from the sidelines at ballgames and dance recitals. Her fondest memories were spending time at her camp house with family and neighbors. The 4th of July and Labor Day Holidays were a special time for family, friends, and reunions. She was a loving mother who welcomed every child who entered her home. The Peoria children each held a special place in her heart, and she enjoyed and looked forward to their visits. She loved all of her neighbors whom she considered family: Potts and Dee Thomas; Mike and Pat Landy; Kenneth Wayne and Nancy McMillan; and Eddie and Juanita Bates. A special friend, Yolanda Cooper of Gloster, Mississippi and a life-long friend Jackie Whitaker of Dickson, Tennessee.
Mrs. White donated to various organizations and charities: Marine Toys for Tots; International Fellowship of Christians and Jews; Mississippi Food Network; and Veterans of Foreign Wars.
She was a member of Robinson Baptist Church for 45 years and taught VBS and was always willing to help with the church's functions and programs. She was also a member of Emanuel Baptist Church in Magnolia, Mississippi for the past two years and enjoyed her time there with her new church friends.
The family would like to say "Thank You" to Hospice Compassus in McComb, Mississippi for the love, care, and prayers. Also to Juanita Bates and Ann Bates and the entire Peoria Community for the outpouring of love and support.
In lieu of flowers, donations to Robinson Cemetery Association 6288 Turner Road Liberty, Mississippi 39645 would be appreciated.
