Obituary
Mrs. Booker was Born in Virginia But resided for most of her life in Glencoe Alabama. She was known to almost everyone as “Mawmaw”. MawMaw was devoted to her family whether as a Scout Leader, band parent, counselor, chauffeur, cook, seamstress, babysitter or “MawMaw” School Teacher. “Plundering” as she called it, was one of her delights as she would grab one of her grandchildren and off they would go to a thrift store to uncover hidden treasures. Her greatest joy was gathering her family around her for a meal and reminiscing about old times. She loved to laugh, and one of her favorite sayings was “It;s just as easy to be happy as not”.
