Millicent Louise Martin McCabe

Obituary Date: Sunday, February 19, 2017
Millicent Louise Martin McCabe, age 74, of Nicholson, Georgia passed away Feb 19, 2017 at her residence after a lengthy illness. 
 
She was born Feb 28, 1942 in Hall County, Gainesville, Georgia to parents, Claud J. and Mamie Lee Stewart Martin.
 
She was predeceased by her parents, daughter, Millicent Renae Ebner and by half-siblings, Grady Martin and LaCleta Robinson, full siblings, Geraldine Sailers, Juanita Anderson, Myrtie Lee Garner, Carlton and Alton Martin and Nora Hayes. 
 
She leaves her loving memories to be cherished by her husband, Orvin "Mac"; her sons, Scott Ford (Dominique) and Gregory Ford (Celina); her step-children, Pat McCabe (Charlotte), Linda McCabe (Bo) and Shawn McCabe; her sisters Lanelle Romines and Martha (Cecil) Garrison; her brothers, Seaborn and Harold Martin (Angela); plus numerous nieces, nephews, grandchildren and great grandchildren.
 
Millicent loved to travel and was blessed to see a lot of the world, both internationally and stateside. Her flower gardens were her delight and her family was a very important aspect of her life. All through the years of her declining health, she stayed upbeat, always smiling, ready to encourage others, very seldom mentioning any pain she was experiencing. Her sisters, Lanelle and Martha, along with their husbands, got to be a part of some of her travels. They will never forget all the fun and loving companionship they enjoyed with Millicent and Mac on these trips.
 
She loved the Lord and that love shone out brightly.
