Another angel gained her wings, Lillian Marie Dunham Ramsey, 68, of Scotland left behind her family and friends to join the heavenly choir on Sunday May 22, 2016. She was born on October 13, 1947 to Paul Dunham and Oma Standridge Dunham at her home in Scotland. She is proceeded in death by her mother and father, her granddaughter, Kandace Sprouse, and brother, Grover Dunham.
Marie is survived by four children; Donna (Marcus) Baker of Scotland, Steve Huffman of Caglesville, ReJeania Ealy (Justin Tillar) of Conway and Christina Quinn of Pleasant Plains. Siblings include Reba (Don) Ramsey, Walter (Karen) Dunham, Troy (Barbara) Dunham, sister-in-law Helen Dunham, all of Scotland, and Patsy Watkins of Jerusalem. She leaves behind 13 grandchildren, 3 great grandchildren, and a multitude of nieces, nephews, other family members and friends.
Marie loved the Lord and was a member of the Scotland Christian Lighthouse Fellowship Church in Scotland. She was a graduate of Scotland High School in the class of 1965. After high school and starting a family, She worked at the chicken plant in her younger years before finding her career of 28 years at the Belden Cord Factory in Clinton.
Among her passions were yard sales and thrift shops where she was always buying something she thought someone could use. Club Aluminum pots and pans and Tupperware were her all time favorites to search for. those that knew and loved her knew she especially loved going to the casino. "Cha Ching"! She also could be found "headed west", of "going to see Lula". Her sense of humor always made people smile because she was a very special lady and saw the positive in every situation. Marie was always there when you needed her. She was the best person to talk to and truly cared about others, often helping those in need. There was always a garden at her house and enjoyed canning fruits and vegetables for family and friends. She was not only a Master Gardner but also made the BEST strawberry jam and most amazing cinnamon rolls. Most days Marie could be seen a Dunham's Grocery helping her brother Buck make breakfast and lunch for the patrons that graced the doors.
In short, Marie was a wonderful Mother, grandma, Sister, Aunt, and friend. Life will certainly not be the same without her and will be truly missed by many.
Visitation will be at 10 am, Wednesday May 25, 2016, at the Scotland Lighthouse Christian Fellowship in Scotland with services following at 11 am with Sister Shelia Gardner officiating. Burial will follow at Foster Cemetery in Scotland.
