Addie Lee (Thornhill) Price

Addie Lee Thornhill Price gained her angel wings on the 25th of November 2018. She was born June 1, 1922 in Marion County, Mississippi to William Esco and Susan Ruby Powell Thornhill. She resided most of her life in the Pine Grove community. In her latter years, she lived mainly with her youngest son in Plant City, Florida. She was married to the love of her life, James Wallace (J.W.) Price, for 62 years. She was a devoted wife and mother. She loved visiting with friends and family, telling stories of times gone by, going to auctions, gardening and fishing. She was a devout Christian and a pillar of her church, Pine Grove United Pentecostal Church. In 2010, she was able to fulfill a lifelong dream of visiting the Holy Land and walking in the steps of her Lord, Jesus Christ. She had a particularly moving experience in the Garden of Gethsemane.

She was preceded in death by her husband J.W.; son James Wendell Price Sr.; sisters Lizzie Mae Craft, Daisy Ray Dunaway and Erma Ree Robbins; brothers Earl Thomas, Joseph Alton and Jewel Clifton Thornhill.

She is survived by sons Wilvie Price (Emily) of Pine Grove and Gary Weyman Price, M..D. of Plant City, FL; grandchildren Connie Jones (Jeff) of Purvis, Cindy Cantrell (David) of Hattiesburg, Jamie Price (Ashley) of Jackson, Kim Rogers (Danny) of Columbia, Kerri Watkins (Steven) of Madison; great-grandchildren Brayden, Maggie Kate, Chloe, Ellyson and Emma; dear friend Thomas William Duncan; numerous nieces, nephews and friends.

A huge loss for her earthly family is heaven’s gain, as she has a joyous reunion with her loved ones.
