Arbie Faye Osgood died in her sleep while taking a nap after a brief illness where she needed a new heart valve.
Arbie had just turned 82 about three weeks before her death.
Arbie was born at 7 months when her mother was kicked by a cow that she was milking. The kick sent her into labor. Arbie was so small that her "crib" was a dresser drawer.
She always was a very slender woman who held herself proudly.
She grew up in Tennessee where her family were cotton farmers.
She met the love of her life, Carl Osgood, and they were married and had two children.
Carl passed away in 1974. For 21 years after his death, her devotion to him was ever strong. She went at least once or twice a month to his grave site at Sunset Cemetery and would talk to him and wipe off the headstone and foot marker and trim the grass around each and pull any weeds that might have crept up.
Now she lays peacefully beside him forever more.
and her children now continue the upkeep of the gravesite with tender loving care, just as she would have wanted.
