Mrs. Willie Mae left Alabama at a very young age and moved to Ohio. She also lived in New York, California and Georgia, where she spent her last 25 years living.

Even though Mrs. Willie Mae never had a permanent church home, that never stopped her from attending service and praising and serving Our Father God.

On January 30th, 2025, Mrs. Willie Mae was called home at the age of 94 years young. She was very blessed that she had her youngest daughter, Sandra Townsend there when she went peacefully in her home. Even though we weren't ready, the Lord was ready for his child to come home.

Through this beautiful life, she had four children, two by the late Harris Estelle and two by the late Marion Lewis Butler. She Married Arthur Linton in California and they moved to Warner Robins til the day he was sent home to be with the Lord.

Mrs. Willie Mae had such gifted hands, from a master seamstress, crafts, crocheting and boi one of the best cooks that came out of Talladega, Alabama but her passion was yard sales and thrift stores. She could stay in a thrift store for hours and really find some good things. Her other highlight was going out to eat with her Family.
