A graveside service will be held at 11:00 a.m. Friday, November 6, 2015 at Ashelawn Memorial Gardens with the Reverend Ronney Hollifield and Reverend Larry Hurst officiating. The family will receive friends from 6:00 until 8:00 p.m. Thursday evening at Wells Funeral Home in Canton. At other times, the family will be at the sister's residence, 30 Mervine Street in Candler.
