Dorothy Ann Metcalf of McDonough, Georgia completed her 90 year journey on this earth on Thursday, October 7, 2021. She was greeted in Heaven by her parents Arthur and Gladys Majors and reunited with her husband of more than 50 years Paul Metcalf and her daughter Annette Gettis.
Dorothy was a woman who loved life and after a career that saw her filling many roles over more than 40 years with Sears she would spend time enjoying bingo, playing slot machines and a good card game with friends. She also enjoyed shopping for clothes, shoes and jewelry. Her family lovingly called her the Bling Queen.
Dorothy's most treasured role in life was to be matriarch of a family that spanned 5 generations. Her legacy lives on through her children Paulette Hayes, Arthur (Bobbie) Metcalf, Butch (Starla) Metcalf, Cathy (Keith ) Jeanis, Sharon Eberhart and son in law Gary Gettis.
Three more generations are left to cherish her memory. Her grandchildren Donald Davis, Deanne Wolf, Monica Frost, Brian Metcalf, Shane Metcalf, Lisa Harris, Vince Register, Chris Mason, Preston Jeanis, Elizabeth Jeanis-Fountain, Nick Fountain, Jennifer Drew, Zach Eberhart, Josh Eberhart, Alex Eberhart as well as 29 great grandchildren, 4 great-great grandchildren, her sisters Caroline Maddox, Pat Smith and Barbara Jean Patty and a host of extended family and dear friends.
A family celebration of Dorothy's extraordinary life and legacy will be held at a later date.
