What we know
Husbands: Stonewall Jackson Louden, then Nelson Junior Owens.
Her youngest son, Terry Lee Owens, died in August 2020, about four months before she did.
She loved Forrest Gump — her sister Carol posted a photo of her with the Forrest Gump wax figure in Pigeon Forge.
Her funeral was 1 p.m. Saturday, January 2, 2021, at Prewitt New Castle, officiated by Rev. Esstil Westrick; burial at Eminence Cemetery.
She had 8 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren.
Bedford Springs Church announced her passing — she had attended there until she moved away to live with her daughter (the daughter is not named).
Her brothers played guitars and sang “House of the Rising Sun” — Carol remembered it on May 31, 2019: “lost two of the three brothers” (Lowell and Boyce; Barry died as a baby).
Her profile picture of September 21, 2013 shows her holding a newborn baby in a pink blanket — commenters asked whose baby it was and never got an answer. The baby is unidentified.
Her great-grandson Valor Dwayne Louden died before she did (his parentage is not known — his middle name hints at Dwayne Owens's line, but that is only a guess).
Her husband Nelson “Junior” Owens died August 13, 2004, aged 59, in Eminence.
