Elouise Moak Boyleston was welcomed into the arms of Jesus on Monday, September 8, 2025. She was born on October 21, 1939 to Lester S. Moak and Martha Bickley Moak in Irmo, SC. She graduated from Aiken High School in May 1957. Shortly thereafter, in July, she married the love of her life, Charles Benson Boyleston.

Mrs. Boyleston dedicated her life to God, her family, and her home. She was beloved by her four children, eight grandchildren, and four great grandchildren. She was a member of Levels Baptist Church. She adored maintaining her yard, watching her birdfeeders, and feeding her fish. She sent her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren cards for every birthday. She also made the best sweet tea and cake squares. She remained active, even at 85, going to games, graduations, weddings, and baby dedications for her family.

She was preceded in death by her parents, two older sisters, Elizabeth Moak Moseley and Ernestine Moak Hudson, her son-in-law, Barry Hegler, and her loving husband, Charles Boyleston. She is survived by her four children, Renee Boyleston Johnson (Bill), Debbie Boyleston Hegler, Janet Boyleston McClain, and Dwayne Boyleston (Erin), her eight grandchildren, Stanley Tipton (Phoebe), Morgan Hegler Shartzer (Bart), Charity McClain Devivo (Michael), Collin Hegler (Allison), Grace McClain, Megan Boyleston, Bridget Boyleston, and Charlie Boyleston, and four great grandchildren, Warren Watson, Brooks and Christian Shartzer, and Caden Devivo. Her love for her family is her legacy, and we will greatly miss her.

The service will be held at Levels Baptist Church located at 2456 Levels Church Road in Aiken, SC on Sunday, September 14, 2025 at 2PM with visitation one hour prior to the service at the church. Interment will follow the service at Southlawn Cemetery.
