Mrs. Grubbs passed away Tuesday, June 2, 2009, at her residence. She was born December 18, 1919, in Linden to A.R. and Maye Goodman Gammill.
Mrs. Grubbs graduated from Linden High School in 1936. She worked for the Draft Board in the 1940s, where she met Clarence Grubbs. They were married on March 6, 1944. She also worked for the Marion County Tax Office for many years, as well as owning and operating the Grubbs Store in the Prospect Community with her husband, Clarence, from the mid-1950s through the mid-1970s.
