Kappy Lynn Brooks Avant Batesville, MS.
Kappy Lynn Brooks Avant, 60, a homemaker, died April 29, 2025, at home. Meredith Nowell Funeral Home in Clarksdale, MS is handling the arrangements.

Survivors include her husband Sidney (Buddy) Avant of Batesville, MS; son Bubba Avant of Batesville, MS; brother Brent Brooks of Jackson, MS; sister Trish Brooks Williamson (Brian) of Angleton, TX; many nephews & nieces.
