Marie Broyles, 86 of the Stinking Creek Community went home to be with the Lord July 31 at Norris Health and Rehabilitation Center in Norris. Marie was born February 26, 1923 to Sterling Sr. and Mary Douglas Meredith in the Stinking Creek Community. She was married to Curtis Broyles for 61 years until his passing in 2000. They made their home and raised their children at the same site of her birth, where she continued to live until her passing. Marie was a long standing member of New Liberty Baptist Church, The Log Church where she served for many years as Secretary and Treasurer. She could also be heard at most services singing the old hymns to Glorify God, many of which she learned from her father. Marie was a generous, kind, and compassionate woman. She was a wonderful mother and grandmother, who always had a song in her heart, a story to tell, the best food you could want, and even a few pranks up her sleeve. She will be sadly missed and very lovingly remembered.
Marie was preceded in death by husband, Curtis Broyles; grandson, Ricky Ferguson; parents Sterling Sr. and Mary Douglas Meredith; sister, Viola Meredith; brothers, Otis Meredith and Sterling "Junior" Meredith.
