Everyone who knew her would speak of her nurturing spirit, a kindness that knew no bounds, and an ability to love unconditionally. These enduring qualities were the cornerstones upon which she built her life and her relationship with all who had the pleasure of knowing her.

   She leaves behind a loving family, her adoring daughter, Teri (Chris Frazier) Flournoy, and her son Scott Flournoy, who found in her not just a mother but a beacon of strength and comfort.

These young lives will carry on the light of her spirit and the teachings of her generous heart.

Her loving nature and wise counsel will also be deeply missed by her niece, Christy Brantley and her husband James, her nephew Michael Hattaway and niece Selena, and her great niece, Heaven Brantley, all of whom held a special place in her heart.

   Preceded in death by her husband, Steven Flournoy, mother, Mamie Lois Flaws, father, Jimmie Lawrence Hattaway, Sr., her brother, Garon Tidwell, and nephew Jeffrey Austin and brother-in-law Joe Mac Austin, Teresa now joins them, leaving a legacy of love that is vivid in the memories and lives of those she touched.
