Mary Frances Childers Peters

January 4, 1931 - August 6, 2020

Mary Frances Childers Peters, age 89, of Warrior, AL, went to be with the Lord on August 6, 2020. She was preceded in death by her husband, Bobby Joe Peters, mother, Eva Lillian Whittaker Childers Pack, father, Jesse James Childers, brother, Jesse Lee "Buck" Childers (Gloria), and grandson, Ramey Andrew Moore. She is survived by her children, Debra Peters Little (Larry), Ramey Keith Peters (Faye), and Karen Peters Moore (David), grandchildren, Mary Jo "Jodi" Hollis (Shannon), Steven Lloyd Ragland, Anthony Phillip Reid (Jessica), Bryan Farris Little (Denise), and Lindsey Rebecca Moore, great grandchildren, Kirk Grant (Lea), Noah Coleman Hopper, Harlee Kate Reid, Hannah Grace Ragland, Ramie Faith Reid, and Matthew Steven Ragland, great great grandchild Liam Anthony Grant, sister, Maxine Childers Taylor (Evertt), and a host of nieces and nephews. Mary was a member of Holiness Mission Tabernacle and a devoted Christian. She served alongside her husband in the Church for several years after he was called to the ministry. Her day to day life was a personification of the scripture verse found Proverbs 31:10: "Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies." Those fortunate enough to encounter Mary found someone of extreme kindness, generosity, gentle in spirit, and quick to show love and grace to all that crossed her path. A hug and smile from her created a warmth that exhibited the love of Christ which will be especially missed by her family. She leaves many life lessons and memories which will live on through her family. Mary participated in community volunteer efforts, and retired after a 22 year career with Social Security Administration. Visitation will be Monday August 10, 2020 from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. in the Chapel of Gardendale Funeral Home. The funeral Services will follow at 1:00 p.m. with interment at Oakwood Memorial Gardens.
