Mary Alice Brackin, 77, of Florence, Alabama, passed away Saturday, April 27, 2024. Visitation will be held at Greenview Memorial Chapel from 11:00-1:00 pm with a service to follow at 1:00 pm Thursday,
May 2, 2024. Pastor Kevin Johnson will be officiating. Burial will be at Elmwood Cemetery in Town Creek, Alabama.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Pelham and Gladys McGregor; her husband, Eddy Joe Brackin; brothers in law, Doyd and Billy Jack Brackin; and sisters in law, Norma Wear and Gwyn Brackin; and her beloved nephew, Jay Brackin. She is survived by her son, Gregory Joe (Jordan); granddaughter, Piper Pace; and many other close family members.
Mary Alice married Eddy Joe Brackin in 1966. The two adopted their only son, Greg, in 1977. Mary Alice was the office manager at Montreat Apartments for 25 years before retiring. She cared deeply for her family and friends, making sure they had a hot meal during times of need, handwriting cards of all kinds, and helping wherever needed. She was always smiling, celebrating even the most overlooked holidays, such as National Banana Bread Day. Her compassionate spirit and heart for service will truly be missed.
Pallbearers will be Bryan Austin, Oscar Beck, Jackie Brackin, Ethan Kitchens, Chad Kitchens, and Robin Wear.
Special thanks to all her friends who visited with her day after day.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks you make donations to First Baptist Church in Florence.
