She was born December 8, 1950 in Brevard, NC to Harold Warren and Mildred McCall Owen. She was preceded in death by her father, Harold.
She grew up in the mountains of western North Carolina with numerous cousins, aunts and uncles. She was a graduate of Massey Junior College in Atlanta, GA, with an Associate Degree in Fashion Retailing. She married Gerald R Dishon II in an outdoor chapel near Brevard, NC on May 28, 1977.
She leaves behind a loving husband, Gerald; son, Gerald III; daughter, Estelyn (Justin) Stanley; granddaughter, Tallis Aurora Stanley; sister, Caron (Mike) Surrett; and mother, Mildred Owen.
We will miss her smile, her grace, her encouragement, her determination and willingness to be the woman that God created her to be. May we who are left honor her memory, laugh at silly moments and recollections, and recognize - and rejoice in - the Lord's goodness to us in all things.
