Margie Ann Clay

December 8, 1932 — August 8, 2016

God visited his garden...He chose one of his most beautiful flowers, Margie Ann Clay on Monday, August 8, 2016 to come home for eternal rest.


Born December 8, 1932 as Margie Ann Sadler, "Ann" was born to the late Arbie and Jennie Sadler in Granville-Jackson County, Tennessee. It was there that she was raised and educated in the public school system of Jackson County.


Ann received Christ in her life at an early age and she was baptized by the late Rev. Leroy Jackson and joined the Walnut Grove Missionary Baptist Church of Buffalo Valley.


Some years later, Ann and her family became active members of Mt. Vernon Missionary Baptist Church in Madison, TN. She remained a faithful member until her departure from this life.


In her earlier years, she gladly served on the Usher Board and sang with the choir. In her latter years, she proudly served on the Mother Board.


Ann's family life was quite fulfilling as she first united with Walter Hancock. From this union was born three sons, Bobby, Tony and Joel Hancock.


Later, she met Johnny Clay, affectionately known to all as "Pap," of Gallatin, TN. They were married on May 14, 1961. He also became an active and loyal member of Mt. Vernon MBC. Pap preceded her in death. From this union were six children, David, James "Jim," Jerry, Danny, Charlie and Lisa.


Ann Clay was a beautiful person with a lovely spirit who was dedicated to her work, her church and her family.


Those that she leaves to cherish her memories is her loving and caring daughter, Lisa Annette Clay; her dear and devoted sons, Bobby (Vanessa), Tony (Effie) and Joel Hancock, David (Karyn Clay), James (Suzette), Jerry (Debra), Danny (Wanda), Charles (Melissa) Clay, many loving grand children, great grandchildren, nieces, nephews, in-laws, friends and family.
