Mary L. Crenshaw White, age 77, of Adrian passed away on Monday afternoon, July 4, 2022 at Fairview Park Hospital in Dublin. 

Born in Dorchester, SC, she was the eldest daughter and one of nine children born to the late Furman Boyd Crenshaw and Virginia Lee Mizell Crenshaw.  Mary grew up primarily and attended high school in McClellansville, SC.   After high school, she married, began her family and settled in Charleston, SC.  In the ensuing years, she lived in Alaska and Soperton until returning to Soperton in 2017. 

Mary loved living in Alaska.  She enjoyed the out doors; hunting, fishing and immersing herself in the native Indian culture.  She enjoyed participating in Indian pow wows, wearing Indian regalia and learning of the native methodology and ideals.  While living in Alaska, she worked at the Fairbanks Memorial Hospital and with Special Needs children within the Fairbanks Northstar Burrough School System.  She came to the Soperton / Adrian area to assist with her mother’s healthcare needs but always yearned to return to Alaska.

In addition to her parents, she is preceded in death by siblings, Dale Wyman, Floyd Crenshaw, Joe Crenshaw, Wendill Crenshaw and Marie Crenshaw.

Mary leaves behind, her children, Quinton Barfield, Northpole, AK, Angie Jackson, Dublin, GA, Richie Barfield, Northpole, AK, siblings, Nadine Henley, Cleveland, VA, Lynn Johnson, Adrian, GA, Bill Crenshaw, Teague, TX, seven grandchildren, eleven great grandchildren and many nieces and nephews.

Her family will receive friends on Friday from 6:00 – 8:00 pm at Sammons Funeral Home in Soperton.

Mary will be laid to rest at a later date in Alaska.
