S Dorothy White

Thank you so much for all the kind words and prayers!
My grandmother was born in Newburgh, Indiana in 1923
to Pearl & Unie Posey. She had 6 siblings her being the baby of them all. She did not graduate high school and had her first child early in life... then her second child 20 years later. (surprise)! She had the two children, three grandchildren, seven great-grandchildren and many extended family that she loved as her own. She was by far NO slouch and knew exactly what she wanted in life. After her first child she then moved and spent her adult years living in Chicago being a barmaid and factory worker while STILL enjoying all of the luxuries of life! She was the oldest mother at Memorial Baptist Church and was very strong in her submission to her Faith! She was such a beautiful woman! My Grandmother has been in great health up until a couple months ago! She was VERY active in her life… she even drove her car until she was 93! She was wise, sophisticated, feisty, and classy! She worked hard and played even harder. She absolutely loved fashion, traveling, and cooking! She cooked the best fried chicken and had a green thumb out of this world! My grandmother was always the host with the most throwing the best extravaganzas! Her life was full of joy and laughter, not much pain at least she never displayed that side! She always showed strength NEVER weakness! Since my brother passed, she then entered into a state of dementia, declining quickly. She took her last breath on September 17th 11:30 PM. two days after her favorite and only granddaughter ‘s Birthday! ❤️This ANGEL will be forever missed and loved and known as The original Miss White a.k.a. Granny Dorothy! So, as I say again thank you to all for your beautiful kind words, and memories!
