Gwendolyn (Gwen) Laney McGuffey

Obituary Date: Saturday, August 8, 2015

Gwendolyn (Gwen) Laney McGuffey of Murrayville, formerly of Griffin, passed away peacefully on August 7, 2015 following a brief period of declining health. 

 

Mrs. McGuffey was born on May 16, 1934 to Tom and Brooks Laney.  She was a member of Highland Baptist Church in Griffin until moving to Hall County in 2007 at which time she joined Mt. Vernon Baptist Church.  She was employed by Crompton-Highland Mills in Griffin for 22 years and the Spalding County School System for 23 years until her retirement in 1996.

 

Her survivors include her husband of 62 years Gene McGuffey, daughter and son-in-law, Donna and Jeff Ertzberger of Murrayville; son and daughter-in-law, David and Nan McGuffey of Palmetto; grandchildren Kristen McGuffey and Laney Ertzberger.  Mrs. McGuffey is preceded in death by her parents, Tom and Brooks Laney and grandson Michael McGuffey.

 

Mrs. McGuffey was a loving wife, mother, and grandmother.  She loved to travel—even accomplishing her dream of going from coast to coast.  She was the #1 cheerleader for her grandchildren—attending every game and activity possible.  “MeMaw” will be greatly missed by all who knew her.

 

Visitation will be Sunday, August 9, 2015 from 1:00-4:00 at Little & Davenport Funeral Home.  Funeral Services will immediately follow at 4:30 at Mt. Vernon Baptist Church with interment in the church cemetery. 

 

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that contributions be made to Samaritan’s Purse or the Georgia Baptist Children’s Home.
