IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Apr 8, 1926 — Dec 1, 2021
Charleston
Mrs. Carrie Lee White was born on April 8, 1926, at Rabbit Ridge in Tippo, MS, to the late Mr. Spencer Horton and Mrs. Carrie Wise. She was the fourth eldest child of siblings, Tom Horton, Annie Pearl Lee, Minnie Pearl Horton, Naomi Horton, and Georgia B. Brown, all of whom preceded her in death.
She later in life joined in holy matrimony with Mr. Willie "Joe" Brown, who also preceded her in death, as well as her sons, Willie Lee "Nuk" White, Willie C. White, Ben Terry White, and James Edward White.
She accepted Christ as her Savior at an early age and became a member of Rocky Branch M.B. Church, where she served as a member of the usher board for years. She later on started fellowship at Philadelphia M.B. Church, where she served on the Mother Board and the Women's Ministry till her dying day. Mrs. Carrie Lee was not only a mother figure for her own kids but also other kids around the town as well (Glenda Houston). She was loved by many, not just family, but friends as well. She loved traveling with her in-laws and friends to other churches. She
prayed daily, not only for herself but others as well. In her last days she told her daughter thank you for sticking by her side every step of the way.
On December 1, 2021, at 2:21 God called her home to join her family and friends. Rest well, Mrs. Carrie; it's well deserved. You've earned your spot in God's Garden. Mrs. Carrie Lee White leaves to cherish: one daughter, Bernice Naomi White of Scobey, MS; three sons, Joe Willie White of
Wichita, KS, William Albert White of Little Rock, Arkansas, and Roley Odell White of Charleston, MS; she also leaves to cherish 24 grandkids, 62 great-grandkids, and 30 great-great-great-grandkids. She will be truly missed.
