Maw Maw was the best mom, maw maw, sister, aunt and friend that anyone could ask for. She was the most loving and kind person that you could ever meet. She would literally give you the shirt off her back. She would cook you a meal or be a listening ear. She loved for someone to paint her long nails, watch game shows, court t.v., Pepsi, peanuts and peanut butter milkshakes. Her favorite was watching or participating in ANYTHING her family wanted to do…like helicopter rides, beach trips, bowling, cornhole games, plays at school, or just a simple cookout. Her family was her life. Maw Maw is going to be missed more than she could ever know.
The family will receive friends from 1:00-1:50 pm on Thursday, September 10, 2026 at Greene Funeral Home Northwest Chapel, 2133 Ebenezer Rd, Rock Hill, SC 29732.
