Mary Louise Owsley

Mary “Louise” Owsley, a beloved wife, mother, and grandmother, passed away on October 8th at her residence. A woman whose heart was brimming with faith, her greatest joys in life were her devotion to God and her cherished family.

Her love for her family was consistently evident in her daily actions. A tireless advocate for the "babies," she selflessly prioritized the needs of others above her own. Although her earthly possessions were modest, she generously shared what she had, enriching the lives of those around her with compassion, kindness, and unwavering dedication. Whenever there was a need—or even a simple desire—she found a way to fulfill it, always striving to brighten the lives of her loved ones.

Her legacy of love will continue through her family as well. She is survived by her daughter, Andrea Price Clinkscales (Milton); her stepdaughter Sheila Hale (Barry); her stepsons Michael Price (Karen), and John Price; two nieces, Kimberly Kierbow, and Lisa Matthews (Bruce); two grandsons, Eric Mosley (Emily), and Caleb Mosley (Crystal); a great-grandson, Jonathan; as well as seven great-granddaughters, Lydia, Genevieve, Athena, Kaylee, Leah, Hannah, and Nora, who will forever carry her memory in their hearts.

She is preceded in death by her husband, Billy Owsley; her parents, Andrew Albert and Mary Alice Kierbow; and her brother, Eugene Kierbow.

A family visitation at Cox Funeral Home in Manchester, Georgia will be held from 10:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. Saturday, October 11th with a chapel service following at 11:00 a.m. at Cox Funeral Home. The Reverend Craig Williamson will be officiating. Afterwards, the family will hold a brief graveside service at Meriwether Memory Gardens in Manchester. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to St. Jude’s Hospital in her name.

Her family finds solace in the knowledge that she is now at peace, rejoicing in the presence of her Lord and reunited with her loved ones who have gone before her. Above all, the assurance that those left behind will see her again, fills her loved ones with joy, making this a truly beautiful celebration.
