She was a loving and devoted mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend and she was loved by many and will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

She is survived by her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, brothers and sisters to include: her sons, Thomas Teal (Sandra), Randy Teal (JoAnn), Robert Teal, daughter, Tina Etheridge (Jack), grandchildren, Donald Poe (Jessica), Daniel Sewell, Brandon Teal (Lauren), Tara Etheridge, Derrian Harris (Austin), great-grandchildren, brother, Gary Hodge (Patty), sisters, Barbara Jones, Ginny Dickerson, many nieces and nephews that she loved and adored. Mary remained a faithful Christian for her entire life and made a family of her church group at Fortson Road Church of God of Prophecy. We know that God is pleased to have one of His children and generous angles back in his arms, where she belongs.

“We know that we cannot have you, but we are happy knowing that the angels have finally got you back. Goodbye to a wonderful woman and a beautiful mother.”
