Mother Marie's Life Journey
Ms. Marie Person was born to the late Mr. Eugene Person Sr. and Mrs. Pauline Person, was born on August 24,1942. She left this earth on Friday Nov.6,20266 from Baptist South Hospital and moved to a heavenly realm unknown to us all. Mother Marie is now with her mother and father,two babies who died at birth, brothers and sisters some nieces and nephews, some cousins and others she knew. Mother Marie accepted Christ at an early age, which she became a Methodist and joined Siloh A.M.E Church in Midway,AL. Marie was what you would call back in the day a “Guys Girl”, meaning she was one of the guys. She would hang with the fellas to play basketball, baseball, go hunting and fishing. Don’t let the looks fool ya, anything a guy could do, she could do it too. Now, there were times would hang with the girls, but Marie hanged around the fellas so she could play ball and have fun. Oh, she just loved watching basketball non stop when it came on tv- she even played basketball in high school. Mother Marie who was a loving mother and loving aunt, leaves behind one daughter Kimberly Person, many nieces and nephews, cousins, friends, classmates, and other relatives. Lastly, she was a walking, breathing, living textbook who was full of rich Black History.
