Fannie “Ruth” (Cash) Mealor, 88, of Demorest, went home to be with the Lord on December 31, 2024.
Born on July 5, 1936, in Mount Airy, she was the daughter of the late Thomas Ameil Cash and Bertie Greemon Cash. Mrs. Mealor worked for a number of years at Clarkesville Mill, Regency Printers, and Walmart in Cornelia. Although she enjoyed sewing, floral arranging, and homemaking, Ruth’s greatest love was the love for her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. She was a member of Camp Creek Baptist Church.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband of 55 years, Loran Mealor, brothers Ray Cash and Tommy Cash, and her sister, Bertha Mealor Green.
Survivors include daughters Angie Withrow (Tommy) and Pam Wright (Gary); grandchildren Kyle Withrow (Megan) of Clarkesville and Mark Withrow (Rebekah) of Mt. Airy; great-grandsons Hunter and Easton Withrow and sister Frances Ledford of Gainesville, as well as nieces and nephews.
The family would like to express their sincere gratitude to caregiver Megan Williams and long-time special friend, Judy Spink and the Northeast Georgia Hospice.
A graveside service will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Friday, January 3, 2025, at Yonah Memorial Gardens, with Pastor Philip Yarber officiating.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in memory of Mrs. Mealor to the Bethlehem Baptist Building Fund, P.O. Box 488, Clarkesville, GA 30523, and Grace Baptist Church Missions Fund, 1768 Chase Rd, Cornelia, GA 30531.
