Mary Magdalene was a loving daughter, sister, aunt, cousin, and friend.  She was the oldest of twelve children.  She loved singing, traveling, and most of all spending time with her family.  If she would have been able to marry and have children, then she would have been a wonderful wife and mother.  If you knew her then you knew how sweet of a person she was.  She will be greatly missed by all of her loving family and friends.

She was preceded in death by her loving parents, James Andrew Counts and Gladys Jordan Counts; two brothers, Billy Counts and Jimmy Ray Counts; and one sister, Barbara Counts McKenzie.

Survivors include her loving sisters, Bonnie Counts Graves of Columbia, and Elizabeth Counts Rayborn and her husband, Terry, of Laurel; her brothers, David Counts of Magee, Jimmy Counts and wife, Eliska, of West Lake, LA, Paul Counts of Magee, Herbert Counts and wife, Patricia, of Mendenhall, Eugene Counts and wife, Pam, of Magee, Herschel Counts and wife, Linda, of Collins, and Ricky Counts and wife, Hailey, of Raleigh; and a host of other family members and friends.

Pallbearers will be Greg Mason, Tarvey Counts, Heath Eason, Terry Rayborn, Charner Benton, and Sammy Mason.
