She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, and sister and was the heart and soul of our family. She lived for her family, especially her grandkids, and always put everyone else first. She was so proud of the 49 years of love and life she and her husband shared, and the kids and grandkids born from it. She was happiest when all of her kids and grandkids were together with her. She also loved spending time with her mom and six siblings as often as she could and really looked forward to the holiday gatherings with them. She had a very nurturing spirit about her that she applied to everything she did. While she loved her family and friends most, she also enjoyed traveling, photography, birds, gardening, and crafting. She was an avid supporter of our military, law enforcement, Donald Trump, and her country and she was actively taking a class where she was studying the constitution more in depth. To know her was to love her and the love she showed us all will be forever treasured. She will be greatly missed.
She is survived by her husband of 49 years, Ronnie Atkins; children, Michelle Stidom (Tommy), Cynthia Rimer (Josh) and Ronnie Atkins, Jr. (Jennifer); grandchildren, Graham Crapps, Clayton Crapps, Cody Barnes, Cameron Atkins, Cheyenne Stidom, Arissa Stidom, and CJ Atkins; siblings, Jesse Monts, Anthony Monts, Patrick Monts, Susan Kinard, Johnny Monts and Cathrine Leopard; along with many nieces and nephews, extended family, and friends.
We invite family and friends to join us as we celebrate her life at 11:00 am on Saturday, January 29, 2022 at Pond Branch United Methodist Church, 1913 Pond Branch Road, Gilbert, SC 29054.
