Camilla Joy McCravey

Camilla Joy McCravey, a woman known for her vibrant spirit and genuine laughter, passed away on January 25th, 2024 in Forest City, North Carolina. Born on October 7th, 1948 in Greenville, South Carolina to Bob Moog and Margaret Childers - Moog, Camilla's life was filled with love, joy, and unforgettable moments.
After graduating from Parker High School in Greenville, Camilla embarked on a successful career at North Pleasantburg Pawn Shop. With her natural talent for sales and a warm personality that drew people in, she quickly became an invaluable member of the team. Camilla's dedication and hard work earned her the respect and admiration of both colleagues and customers alike. In 2010, after many years of service, she retired, leaving behind a legacy of professionalism and integrity.
While Camilla was truly accomplished in her professional life, it was her personal life that brought her the most fulfillment. She had an unwavering love for her family and cherished the times spent together creating beautiful memories. One particularly special memory was when she and Wayne traveled to Tennessee to embark on a magical Train Ride through the Smokey Mountains. Laughter echoed through the train as they marveled at the breathtaking landscapes together - a memory forever etched in their hearts.
Camilla had a zest for life that was contagious. She was known for being strong-willed and fearless, always ready to face new adventures head-on. Her infectious laughter filled every room she entered as she sought out connections with people from all walks of life. Whether it was sharing stories with old friends or striking up conversations with strangers who soon became friends, Camilla had a special way of making everyone feel seen and valued.
In her free time, Camilla indulged in her passions. She loved to travel, exploring new places near and far. From quaint towns to bustling cities, she made it a point to take in the sights, immerse herself in different cultures, and create lasting memories. Camilla found solace in attending church, drawing strength and inspiration from her faith. But perhaps one of her greatest joys was being in the kitchen, where she delighted in preparing delicious meals for those she held dear.
Camilla's spirit lives on through her life partner of 18 years, Wayne L. Staton, who supported and cherished her every day. She is also survived by her loving sons, Byron (Judy) Hall and Kevin Hall, who were always a source of pride and joy for her. Camilla had 9 Grandchildren and 4 Great Grandchildren; however, her granddaughter Kaydance Hall brought an extra sparkle to Camilla's eyes; their bond will forever be treasured.
Camilla was predeceased by her parents, a son Alvin Dean Hall and two brothers Danny Bowen & Donnie Bowen all from Greenville.
Today, we gather not only to mourn the loss of an incredible woman but also to celebrate a life well-lived. Camilla Joy McCravey touched the hearts of many with her infectious laughter, warm personality, and genuine love for others. She leaves behind a legacy of kindness and resilience that will continue to inspire generations to come.
As we say our final goodbyes to Camilla, let us remember the joy she brought into our lives and carry that flame within us. May her vibrant spirit forever live on in our hearts and may we honor her memory by cherishing every moment spent with loved ones, just as she would have wanted.
Rest in peace, dear Camilla Joy McCravey. You will be deeply missed but never forgotten.
