Obituary
MILDRED MORRISON CALDWELL
MILDRED MORRISON CALDWELL, 95, of
Ona, beloved wife, mother and grannie, entered her eternal home July 22,
2019, at the Emogene Dolin Jones Hospice House. She was the daughter of the
late Luther and Mary Rimmer Morrison. She was preceded in death by her
daughter, Ann Caldwell. She is survived by her husband of 74 years, Lewis E.
"Gene" Caldwell; daughters, Mary Gene "Genie" Beheler Burdick (Michael),
Joyce "Jo" Ross (James) and Susan McComas (Tom); grandchildren, Philip and
Thomas Beheler, Benjamin and Bethany Ross, Erin McComas Carter (Chris) and
Jenna McComas; great-granddaughter, Keeley Carter; brother, James Morrison,
and sister, Maxine Turley; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and
in-laws, all of which she treasured. She graduated from Milton High School
and the Huntington School of Business and was the first woman hired at the
Huntington Nickel Plant, working in Orders and Scheduling during World War
II. She and Gene were the caretakers of the Guyandotte Baptist Association
Camp in Ona for 30 years. Mildred was carried into Beulah Ann Missionary
Baptist Church by her father as a newborn, was saved there at an early age
and was faithful all her life. Over the years, she served as a Sunday School
teacher, Youth Leader, Church Clerk and American Baptist Women's Ministries
leader. As a young mother, she began the church's monthly newsletter, which
has now been published continuously for 62 years, with she being the editor
for 59 years. She considered this her ministry. She authored a history of
the Ona Community and two editions of the history of Beulah Ann Baptist
Church. She treasured family history and kept records and scrapbooks, which
we will always cherish. Funeral services will be conducted at 11 a.m.
