Obituary For Ladye Bea Terrell

Ladye Bea Terrell was born May 9, 1941 to the late Tony Lucious (T. L.) & Reba Mae Hutchinson in Greensboro, Georgia. A lifelong Greensboro resident, she graduated from F. T.

She accepted Christ at an early age and was a dedicated member of Antioch Missionary Baptist Church, where she served and sang in the choir for many years.

Ladye Bea met the love of her life, the late Raymond Bernard "R.B." Terrell, and the two were joined in holy matrimony on January 12, 1961. To this union, three children were born. After retiring from Chipman Union in Union Point. Georgia, Ladye Bea spent many of her latter years as a devoted caregiver to her mother and husband as well as to several children throughout Greene County.

I met Ladye B when she kept the twins for my niece and nephew, Joanie and Cody Patrick. There was no pretension about Ladye B. She had that rare quality of making you feel like you'd known her for years. I loved being around her and listening to her wise counsel. Her sense of humor was infectious. She loved her family and her Church family. She'll be missed and I treasure the time I spent with her.

Ladye Bea was my dad Sister In Law she loved life and lived life to the fullest. Thank you for always showing love to me you showed folks how to age gracefully. There is a void on The Family Tree now but to be absent from this body is to be present with the Lord. Put on your robe and tell the story how you made it over soon as you get to your heavenly home. Praying for you Jeffrey Fred Quee as well as the rest of the family.

I didn't get the honor of meeting Momma Terrell however I certainly know her son Jeff and I can't imagine the apple falling far from the tree-she had to be an exceptional woman. My heart goes out to the Terrell family and may they take great comfort in knowing that being absent from her body, means Momma Terrell is present with our Lord🙏🏼. Wayne E. Glass

"Granny B" was my children's sitter from birth until it was time for them to begin school. She was a true blessing in our lives. She was a dependable, energetic, kind, and wonderful woman. The early days with the twins couldn't have been easy but she always had a smile. When we added another in the mix just 14 months later, she handled another infant with ease. Gosh, they loved their "Granny B," and she loved them like they were her own. They remained "her babies" no matter how old they became. I will forever be thankful for the time, care, and love that she poured into our family. ❤️ Cody, Joanie, Faith, Cameron, and Mallory Patrick
