She graduated from Geer Gantt High School and was a faithful member of Welfare Baptist Church until her health declined.

She is survived by one son, Gregory Peterson of Anderson, SC; two sisters, Linda Miller of Anderson, SC and Zella Hall of Columbia, SC; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and so many loving friends.
In addition to her husband and parents, she was preceded in death by two brothers, Larry C. Peterson and Willie Paul Peterson.
