Wanda McCrary, 71, of Chuckey, TN, has gone home to be with her husband, on November 10, 2012.
She loved working outside in the dirt, weed eating and working in her flowers. She was a mother to all and she had a great love for her family. She was a wonderful mother-in-law and she will be dearly missed by all who knew her.
God made a wonderful mother; A mother who'll never grow old. He made her smile with golden sunshine; He made her heart with pure gold. He made her as nearly an angel, As anyone could be. God made a wonderful mother; And gave that mother to me. Love, Your Children.
