She had been an active and faithful member of Corinth Baptist Church since she was a young bride. She loved the Lord and shared that love and her faith with all she knew. She was loving, kind and generous and it was almost impossible to end a visit to her home without taking something she had made or grown with you. Her Prayer each morning was that the Lord would make her a blessing to someone that day, and He certainly answered that prayer. Her hospitality extended to countless family members and guest throughout the years as she offered the bounty of her table to all. She was a kind and loving wife, mother, grandmother and friend. She truly did let her light shine so that all could see her good works and glorify God.
Visitation will be Saturday October 1, from 5:00PM till 7:00PM and again 1:00PM till service time at Corinth Baptist Church. Funeral service will be 2:00PM Sunday October 2, at Corinth Baptist Church.
Colonial Chapel Funeral Home is in Charge of arrangements.
