Nanny was known for her endless service and devotion by providing many meals, providing motherly care to numerous children throughout her lifetime and stitching beautiful quilts by hand for loved ones. People would come from miles for her fluffy biscuits, sweet tea or a bowl of beans that was always being cooked. She blessed so many people and touched many lives with her stories, service to others and her loving spirit up until her final breath. Nanny will be missed by many while Heaven will be rejoicing.
