Eula Lee Eddy
of Chelsea, Michigan, formerly of Salyersville, Kentucky, age 76, passed away unexpectedly Wednesday, August 27, 2025, at her home. She was born March 8, 1949, in Paintsville, Kentucky, the daughter of Hade and Vera Vivian (Arnett) Montgomery.
Eula graduated from Chelsea High School, class of 1967, and attended Cosmetology School in Ann Arbor. She worked as a cosmetologist in Chelsea, and Ann Arbor, in the early 70's. Eula later stayed home to raise her children as they were her main priority. As her children got older, she worked at Bookcrafters in Chelsea, and Thomson-Shore in Dexter. Eula was active with the Chelsea High School Reunion Group. She was an avid fan of Billy Mack & the Juke Joint Johnnies and enjoyed taking friends to their shows to go dancing. Eula was selfless and enjoyed caring for and driving others around when needed. She was the anchor of her family and loved being with her children, grandchildren, and many friends.
