I’ve known Miss Fairy all my life.  She was a hard worker,  a good Christian and a great friend to my Mother. They talked often on the phone. If I couldn’t get Momma on the phone, I knew she was probably catching up with Miss Fairy. She will be missed. But her faith has become sight and she is having the best time of her life.

  We will all miss Fairy because she was just a very good woman and had a lot of influence on me and other co-workers. She loved people. When I met her l was young and  had been married only a few years.  She was always up beat, friendly, helpful and always asked about my family.  She was a hard worker. I gave her a nick name, I called her Swingin’ MaMa. At first she didn’t know what to think but we had many years and no matter where we met, I always got that contagious  smile after I said, “Hello Swingin’ MaMa.”
    My sister went to church with her and she would always say, “Steve that woman loves you.”  Fairy told Linda, “Steve Shelton calls me Swingin’ MaMa.”  My sister, Linda,  went to see Fairy some and she was always glad to see us. Also Linda would take her things from church  and always let me know Fairy asked how I was doing. 
   She was a dear friend and will be greatly missed. 

So sorry too hear of aunt fairy passing . she will be missed so much she and mom use to talk a lot.  

I am very sorry to hear of Fairy's passing!  She was a kind and upstanding Christian lady! I knew her all my life; in fact, I grew up within a half mile of where she and her family lived!  
She had a very positive impact on my life in the way she cared for her family and in her love of Christian principles! She will be missed by all! No doubt, she resides in a better place now!
