Mrs. Thacker was born in Lincolnton, GA to Bud and Blanche Ashley, but lived in Augusta most of her life.

Mrs. Thacker worked for Dupont/Westinghouse at Savannah River Site in the Procurement Department, Retiring in 1994 with close to 30 years of service. She loved working in her yard and was very meticulous about it. She loved golf and watching her grandson Scott play. She loved the Masters and looked forward to that week every year. But most of all she cherished her family. She was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. Mrs. Thacker was a longtime member of Crawford Avenue Baptist Church.

The family would like to express their deep admiration and gratitude for the management and staff of Thrive at Augusta, Enhabit Home Health and Hospice and her special caregiver Ms. Lynn Ross.
