Obituary

Ms. Mattie Lucille Kendricks, daughter of the late Mattie Louise Warner and Bruce Groom was born on December 14, 1948, in Fayette County, Georgia. She was preceded in death by siblings, Cora, Howard, James, Frank and daughter in law, Darene. At an early age she professed her faith in Jesus Christ and joined Greater Beulah MBC where she was a dedicated member and served faithfully as an usher. She was employed at the Farmer's Market in Forest Park, Georgia for over 30 years. No one knew tomatoes like Mattie.
In His infinite wisdom and gentle grace, Almighty God reached down from Heaven and whispered ever so quietly to one of his children these words "Come with me my daughter for it's time to go home" and so it was that Sunday, January 15,2023 God closed the eyes of our beloved Mattie.
Her beautiful life will forever be cherished in the lives of her sons, Charles Jordan, Jr and Carl (Donna) Jordan; brother, Willie Morris Watkins; sister-in-law, Sarah Blandburg; four grandchildren; Vonda, Charles "Tae", Dana and Chardalia; six great grandchildren;; special friend Mr. Willie George Thomas and a host of devoted nieces, nephews cousins and friends.
Her interests included going to church, listening to gospel music, cooking, spending time with family and friends and talking on the phone.
As a result of her generous spirit and pleasant personality she was loved by many.
