Vina Hudson Harris, 95, of Hixson, passed to glory on June 2, 2021.

The world has lost a wonderful woman and her three daughters, Brenda Hutson, Sheila Harkey and Kathy Peterson lost a loving Mama.  Sharing her daughter’s loss is her “Adopted” baby girl, Susan Gooden.

Vina loved God, singing, watching the Gaithers, going to church, and everyone she ever met.  She had a happy soul and was always smiling.  I’m sure all mourn the loss of  loved ones, but Vina was truly a gift to all who knew her and will be greatly missed. 

Mrs. Harris was preceded in death by her first husband, Charles Alton Hudson, her second husband, Burgess Harris, two sons, Charles, Jr., and Raymond; grandsons, Shawn Smith and Charley Hall.  She was also preceded in death by her father, Bula Lee Lemons, her mother, Florence Clark Lemons, siblings, Orville, Ollie, Myrtle, Dewey, Leslie B.,JB, Odessa, Pauline, Gladys, Margaret and Joyce.

Besides her daughters, she is survived by her sister, Grace Langley her grandchildren, Nicholas Hutson, Bridgetb(Barry) Frizzell, Shea (Andy) Foy, and Casey (Hope Lovern) Hall.  Four great grandchildren; Lauren Sexton,Hudson Sexton, Kaleb Hutson and Riley Hutson.

To the world, she was one person; to the ones who knew her she was the world. Mama is singing with the angels and sitting at God’s feet, worshipping the one she loved best and Oh how she could love.

Mama didn’t want a funeral or graveside service so, per her wishes, a visitation will be held from 2–4 p.m. on Sunday June 6, at Hamilton Funeral Home & Cremation Services, 4506 Hixson Pike, 423 531-3975.
