Grace Hefner Edwards

Obituary Date: Thursday, June 9, 2022
Grace Hefner Edwards, of Demorest, Ga. went to be with the Lord on June 9, 2022. She is survived by a large thankful and loving family. She was born on November 28, 1925. She was preceded by her husband, W.L. Edwards and parents Golyer Vassar and Azzie Missouri Hefner, and eleven brothers and sisters. She is survived by four children, Lamar Edwards (Dee), Jean Edwards (Larry Taylor), Lynne Edwards (Richard Holden), Anita Wright (Tony), Grandson Mark Edwards (Lisa), Granddaughter Nicole Queen (Gary), Granddaughter Jeanette Mull (Allen), Grandson Cameron Cook (Jennifer), Granddaughter Savannah Davis (C.T.) and twelve Great Grandchildren and eight Great, Great Grandchildren, and many caring nieces and nephews that maintained close contact with her through the years. Moma Grace and W.L. raised their family in the Blue Creek area of White County where they operated a chicken and cattle farm. Grace was an integral part of the farming operation and she made sure that an active “Church Life” was a big part of her family’s growth. Moma Grace was also a prolific seamstress, leaving behind many heirloom quilts and embroidery items that will be cherished by generations to come. She was a caring and loving mentor to her family and a multitude of friends who will richly remember her, and God will surely put a gold star by her name in the “Big Book”.  
 
Funeral services are scheduled for 2:00 P.M. Saturday, June 11, 2022, at The Chapel of Barrett Funeral Home.  Mr. Mark Edwards and Rev. Cameron Cook will officiate.
 
The family will receive friends from 4:00 P.M. until 7:00 P.M. Friday and 12:00 noon to 2:00 P.M. Saturday, prior to the funeral service.
