Polk of Warrenton, Georgia.

From the Family- "Our Mother didn't want her passing to be a sad or somber occasion. Her services will be a casual meeting to exchange stories, rejoice in her life, and to mark the occasion of her passing: We celebrate the numerous new lives she ushered into this world in the back of an ambulance, in a field or in the local grocery store; the countless lives she has saved; the injured and the sick she provided care and comfort to; and the lives she touched with her encouragement, tutelage, words of wisdom, and shrewd sense of humor. Today is not a day to mourn her loss, but to revel in her accomplishments as a Medic, Teacher, Friend, Sibling, and Mother. The world is a much better place for having known her. Even in death, her life will continue to impact the countless number of people who encountered her as family, teacher, friend, and Paramedic."
