Nila Faye Rose Mayhall

October 7, 1953 — May 2, 2019

Nila Faye Rose Mayhall was born in Savannah, Tennessee on October 7, 1953, the daughter of the late William Clantis and Sallie Waymon Cummings Rose. On January 27, 1981, she was united in marriage to Larry S. Mayhall, who preceded her in death on February 15, 2016. Nila departed this life on May 2, 2019, at the age of 65 years, 6 months, and 25 days.

Nila worked at Brown Shoe Company for several years. She loved life, taking care of others, her dogs, working in the flowerbeds, cooking, and listening to loud music. She was a spirited woman with high energy and helped raise a host of nieces and nephews and several other local children in her years as a babysitter. Her greatest joy came from the love she shared with her "Honey"-her husband, Larry Mayhall. They were inseparable and are now united forever.

Nila is survived by her siblings, Eirlon Scott of Savannah, Tennessee and Donnie Rose of Olive Hill, Tennessee; grandchildren; and lots of nieces and nephews.

In addition to her husband, Larry, and her parents, Nila was preceded in death by her daughter, Suzanne Mayhall and siblings, Margie Loretta Rose, Helen Joyce Rose Bowling, and William Gene Rose.
