Eddie Mae attended and graduated from Marshall High School in 1962. At the tender age of 18 she provided domestic services to the Tom Tigner family where she was able to use her gift of cooking and baking. A time when she could really bring happiness to her family, (Tigner family). She also received joy in cooking and baking for other family, friends, and anyone fortunate enough to eat any of her cooking. Eddie Mae was also employed at Kroger for many years.
She accepted Christ at an early age, united with First Missionary Baptist Church, later uniting with South Post Oak Baptist Church, before returning and later reuniting with First Missionary Baptist Church where she remained until her demise. Eddie Mae served on the Food Committee, Women's Mission, Senior Choir, and Senior's On The Move. Eddie Mae was a shining example of positivity, kindness, and grace to all who knew her. Her life was dedicated to her family, and she always found the time to offer a listening ear, a warm hug and a compassionate heart.
