MARY CAROL PAINTER

Mary Carol was born October 22, 1958 in Memphis TN, daughter of Carol Ann and Don Allen Painter. After a devastating battle with cancer, her spirit departed this Earth on March 8th, 2018, at St. Luke's Hospice House, surrounded by family. Mary lived with her daughter, Mindee, and Christopher, who were by her side as she went to countless doctors' appointments. Mary fought with her whole heart and soul.

Mary was preceded in death by her father, Don Allen Painter.

Mary is survived by her Mother, Carol Ann Burton (Jim); her brother, Ricky Painter (Joanie); and her sister, Penny Painter Wright. Mary had three beautiful children, Jeremy C. Brown (Sally), Linsey Brown Klinksick (Chad), and Mindee Lyle (Christopher). Mary had four wonderful grandchildren- her baby boy Louis,  Alissa, Kody and  Lane.

Mary was a free-spirited gypsy soul who cherished everything about nature. She had such a love for animals, butterflies, four leaf clovers, exotic plants, and many other favorites. She spent most of her time outdoors; she especially loved the river and creeks. She enjoyed life to her fullest with adventure, dancing, and bringing a smile to whomever she met along the way.

She leaves us with her charm, beautiful face, and music in her soul for eternity.
