Obituary for Ida Ruth Stevens Aaron Holcomb
Mrs. Ida Ruth Stevens (Aaron) Holcomb was born to Frank Ransom and Cammie Elizabeth (James) Stevens on February 22, 1926 in Vossburg, MS. She passed away at the age of 96 on August 23, 2022 at South Central Regional Medical Center surrounded by her loved ones.
She was preceded in death by her parents; siblings, Cleo Stevens Jones (Drayton), Frank R. Stevens, Horace, Aubrey, Infant Stevens, Verda Mae Stevens Brewer (Dewey) and Robert H. (Bob) Stevens; her son, Frank Aaron and daughter-in-law, Kathy (Crumpton) Aaron; son-in-law, Jimmy Holder; grandson, Jimmy Darrell Holder Jr.; father of her children, Robert Aaron; and her second husband, George T. Holcomb and his children, Tommy G. Holcomb and Barbara Holcomb Perryman.
She is survived by her daughters and sons-in-love, Patsy and Kenny Purvis of Eucutta, MS, Paula and Dan Byrd of Sandersville, MS, and Karen and Ronnie Williams of Moss, MS; grandchildren and spouses, Shawna and Mike Herrington, Kenley and Bre Aaron, Lesley and Connie Broadhead, Deanna and Kris Breland, Darlene and Clint Cotten, and Derek and DeeLayne Holder; great grandchildren and spouses include Aaron and Andrew Jordan, Delayne Herrington, John, Caleb, Autumn, and Olivia Broadhead; Kayleigh and Dalton Breland; Ashton and Taylor Cotten; Kade Cotten and Harli Miller; Karley Cotten; and Dayne, Dawsyn, and Aubrey Claire Holder. She is also survived by great great grandchildren, Finnleigh Cotten, Brantley Eddy and Jace Jordan, as well as her second husband's family, Donna Bounds (Johnny), Brandy Massey and her family, Tammy Walters, Kyle (Janey) Perryman and their family, and Cody (Memory) Perryman and their family. Her surviving siblings are sister, Dot Saul of Stringer and sister-in-love, Cleo Stevens of Bay Springs. She was the proud aunt and a second mom to so many nieces and nephews. She was also a special mom to many of her children's friends over the years. Her house was always open, she kept many family members and friends fed and watered with her delicious "soul food" and was always willing to listen, lend a helping hand, or help take care of anyone.
Her greatest passion was the love for her family. She loved hard and unconditionally, especially those grands, great-grands, and great great grands. As long as her health would allow, she was each one's biggest cheerleader and encourager. From football, cheerleading, softball, pageants, competitions, school awards, plays, graduations, you name it, if her grands were involved, she was there. They always knew they could count on Mamaw/Granny/Granny Pecker to be there.
She enjoyed quilting (by-hand), crocheting, gardening, cooking, canning, watching football and baseball, doing find-a-word books, and spending time with family for any occasion.
We want to say a special THANK YOU to her many caretakers during her stay at Comfort Care in Laurel. We were always told that she was a model patient. They loved on her and treated her like their own. For that we are so grateful! We are also thankful to Anna Hendry and Jamie Parker for their wonderful help during her stay on Tuesday at South Central. Each of you went above and beyond to take care of her and us. We appreciate each of you so much!
Visitation will be held at Memory Chapel Funeral Home from 5:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, August 25, 2022. Services will be held at Memory Chapel Funeral Home on Friday, at 2:00 p.m. with interment to follow at Florence Congregational Methodist Church Cemetery. Bro. Tony Johnson will officiate.
