Thelma Eugenia Stanley Veazey (Gene), age 90, moved peacefully to Heaven just after noon on December 20, 2019.
Mrs. Veazey was born on February 11, 1929 in Greensboro, GA, to Paul Randolph Stanley and Thelma McCommons Stanley.
The couple enjoyed traveling together and made trips across the United States and made several trips to Europe and the Caribbean. They were also loyal alumni of the University of Georgia and followed the “DAWGS” to many seasonal and post-seasonal football games through the years.
Most of all Gene loved her husband of 63 years, her family and her God. She came to saving faith in Jesus Christ as a child and lived out her life by His example in the way she best understood. She was loved and admired by many and was described by those who knew her well as “loving”, “kind”, “the sweetest lady”, “beautiful inside and out”, “loving mentor”, “gracious Southern lady”, “the loveliest person I’ve ever known.” She is known in her family as their beloved Mother, Mama and “Bop-Bop”.
Preceding Mrs. Veazey in death were her parents, a granddaughter Ashlin Faith Veazey, and her husband, Charlton.
The family wishes to express our gratitude to the many who lovingly cared for our Mother and tended to her needs over the last few years including Martha Hill, Lillie Hill, Alethia Hill, Catreda Smith, and the staff of The Glen at Lake Oconee.
