Obituary: Mary Kathryn Shields


 


Mary Kathryn Shields of Hartford made her heavenly flight on Wednesday, September 11, 2024 at Hartford Health Care. 


Funeral services will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, September 14, 2024 in the chapel of Sorrells Funeral Home in Slocomb with Dr. Scott Cox, and Rev. Bruce Spivey officiating. Burial will follow in the Hartford City Cemetery with Sorrells Funeral Home of Slocomb directing. 


The family will receive friends at the funeral home on Saturday beginning at 1:00 p.m. and continuing until service time. 


In lieu of flowers, the family request that contributions be made to Hartford Retirement Village in memory of Mrs. Shields. 


Mrs. Shields was born December 2, 1938 in Geneva County to the late James Marion and Lola Teresa Price Shields. Kathryn, as she was known by many, led a fulfilling life. She loved the Lord and being with her family most of all. As she loved music, being the church organist for Hartford Baptist and various other churches where she was a member during her life was especially gratifying to her. Kathryn was a wonderful cook, and delighted in preparing delicious meals for family gatherings. Traveling the world was another pastime she enjoyed. She made many memorable trips throughout the US, Europe, and Central America. She was a loving mother, and grandmother who will be dearly missed. 


In addition to her parents, two brothers: Troyce Shields (Fay), Opelika, and Gerald Shields (Patricia), Marianna, FL; an infant sister, Sarah Helen Shields; great granddaughter, Tali Burditt, Houma, LA all preceded her in death. 


Survivors include four children: Connie Walker (Charles), Hartford, Kenny Tindell (Stephanie), Hartford, Carl Tindell, Dallas, TX, and Michelle Culp (Donnie), Headland; thirteen grandchildren: Steven Walker (Jessica), Jennifer Richards (Jeremy), Kayla Burditt (Ronald), Kenneth Tindell (Wendy),  McKayla Haynes, Thomas Tindell,
Cooper Ashcraft, Marsha Tindell, Lester Tindell (Tonia),  Corinne Solis,  Natalie Faulk, Haydyn Murphy (Michael), Lindsey Worthington (Storm); eleven great grandchildren; one great-great grandchild; nieces, nephews and other extended family and friends. 


The family would like to express their sincere appreciation for the staff of Hartford Retirement Village, Hartford Healthcare, and Southern Care Hospice for their care and dedication in her final years
