She is survived by one son Michael Maurice Peden, two grandchildren Phillip Peden, Vanessa Sisco, six great grandchildren Katie Stewart, Savannah Stewart, Blake Peden, Mason Peden, Darlene Marshal, Scarlett Marshal and one great-great grandson Matthew Coats.

Mabel had a love for books, stickers, and greeting cards, and she never missed an opportunity to let someone know she was thinking of them. She remembered everyone’s birthdays and anniversaries and faithfully sent cards to celebrate life’s special moments. She also had a wonderful sense of humor and was guaranteed to make you laugh, bringing joy and laughter to those around her. She had a heart for serving others, spending 13 years cleaning Greenbrier Baptist church, where she was raised. She also enjoyed making quilts, playing bingo, and, most of all, attending church and gathering with family for the annual family reunions. Her love for people was evident in the little things she did every day, and she had a special way of making others feel remembered, loved, and cared for in the ways that mattered most. Her kindness, thoughtfulness, laughter and love for her family and church will be cherished and remembered by all who knew her. She was a member of Madison Street Baptist Church of Athens.
