Neva Elizabeth "Kish" Gran King

Neva Elizabeth (Kish) Gran King, our dear Mother, 87, was peacefully summoned to be with the Lord on November 28, 2021, surrounded by family at her home in Midland, GA.

A celebration of life service and visitation will be held 5:00-7:00 PM Tuesday, December 7, 2021at McMullen Funeral Home and Crematory, 3874 Gentian Blvd. Columbus, GA 31907.

Neva was born in Fort Riley, Kansas on February 4, 1934, daughter of the late John and Ruth (Sheldon) Kish.  Other than her parents she is preceded in death by her husbands, Dr. Donald F Gran, Sr. and Mr. Craig King; siblings, Elly Allison, Penny Flynn and John Kish; and her beloved oldest child Dr. Donald F Gran, Jr.

She is survived by her children, John Gran (Sara), Tommy Gran, Ruthie Shemwell (Tom); siblings Fran Brown and Carol Crowell.  Neva shared her passion for life with her grandchildren Lauren Shemwell and Jennifer Mobley; great-grandchildren, Wright and Libba Mobley; many nieces and nephews, especially, Lisa Hanson her namesake and Donna Schmitt her friend since childhood.

Neva’s love for life did not end with her passing.  She will always be remembered for “cheering” (loudly) for her children, nieces & nephews and the neighborhood friends at all sports events.  She touched many lives and left this world a much better place. She will be missed.

Special thanks to Columbus Hospice of Georgia & Alabama, especially Hillary Hudson, RN and Denise Thomas.
