Good Morning Everyone, I convey to you the sad news that my Aunt Eunice Sexton passed away on Mother's Day. She was in a hospital in Springfield at her death, but lived her married life in the Everton/South Greenfield/Pennsboro area of Pennsboro. She has at least two grandchildren who live in Lawrence Co. She was married to my mother's oldest brother, the late Harlan Raymond Sexton. Here is her obituary and some comments on her funeral service from the Greenfield Vedette. MeMe was the affectionate name used by her grandchildren/great grandchildren. If there was an obituary in the Miller Press or Lawrence County Record, I would very much appreciate a copy. Best Regards, Janet (Baugh) Hunter Eunice Sexton - Obituary and Mention in "Dadeville News" Section. Greenfield Vedette, May 22, 2003 Obituary, Sect.

Following interment in Shiloh Cemetery, the family and some others had dinner and visited in the home of MeMe's son and wife, Lewis and Jo Sexton of Everton. Jeremy Sexton is in Kuwait at present and had considered coming home to spend a few days with Brandy and Aiden, his parents and other relatives, but had decided against coming.
