Mrs. Parsons was born July 10, 1934 in Columbus, GA daughter of the late William Elex Addison and Ida Cornelia Reeves Addison. She was a member of Golden Acres Baptist Church for many years. Mrs. Parsons met the love of her life for 72 years, Frank Parsons, Sr. at the Idle Hour Park Dance Hall, dancing right up until she stepped into Heaven. She loved to swim in the river, skate, camp, and cook “Southern Style”. Mrs. Parsons was also an accomplished seamstress, retiring from Ft. Benning after many years there. She also enjoyed sewing for her family and friends as well. We will cherish her memories as the most precious “Pearl” God ever gifted to a family.
Mrs. Parsons was preceded in death by her parents, William and Ida Addison, two sisters, Mattie Lou Stamey and Rosa Ray, and a grandson, Wesley Charles Ray.
