LV, affectionally known as “Lizzie Mae” to her Mississippi family was born on March 18, 1943, the youngest of twelve to the loving union of the Sterling and Murrie Travis Magee in Pricedale, Mississippi.
LV received her education in Mississippi where she graduated from Booker T Washington High School. In 1963, soon after graduating, she married Robert Nunnery and in 1964 they moved to Oxnard, California.
She was a homemaker and raised her children and other people’s children when needed. If a child was under her care, they were loved and treated as her own even if that meant getting that long switch when needed, fed, and cleaned by the time they were picked up. She was loved and respected by her children’s friends and affectionately called “Mama Nunn” or “Mama Nunnery” by them.
When meeting LV, you were greeted with a smile, offered something to eat, and a seat to talk. LV loved car rides while listening to some good quartet music. Her favorite was Lee Williams and the Spiritual QC’s.
LV departed this life on Friday, January 7, 2022, surrounded by her children and grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her parents, Sterling and Murrie Magee; husband Robert Nunnery, children Albert and Curtis, grandson Lamar; siblings Leroy, Thomas, Jessie Magee, Lonnie and Sallie Pittman, and Ola Mae Nichols.
LV will be greatly missed by all who knew, loved and encountered her beautiful soul. Rest well, we shall see you again!
