Mrs. Avery was born July 24, 1926 in Biloxi, MS and passed from this life on April 20, 2017 in Ruston, LA at the age of 90.

Her early married years were busy living in many places as a military wife and mother, raising her family as her husband Ben served in the United States Air Force. After retiring and settling in Calhoun, LA she was blessed with many grandchildren who were her greatest joy. She enjoyed crochet, needlework, taking care of her home, and spending time with family more than anything. She was a faithful member of New Chapel Hill Baptist Church for many years.
