Born in Commerce, GA, she was preceded in death by her devoted Dad, Jimmy D. Parris; her beloved Papa and Nanny, Tillman (Buddy) and Bertie Bagwell and her uncles Johnny Bagwell and Phillip Bagwell.

“Sissy,” as she was known by all those who loved her, was the center of any room she walked into. Her smile could turn anyone’s day around. She never met a stranger and loved “her boys” as she called her friends at the barbershop. Sissy never slowed down, always living her life at full speed. Sissy was the ultimate cheerleader for her nieces and nephews, they always knew when she was supporting them in their sporting events. She loved the community police officers and firefighters, nothing excited her more than seeing them out and about.
