Grandchildren Justin, Kendall, Kaleb, Jimmy, Ashley, Hailey, Wyatt, Covie, Olivia and Madison. Along with many other relatives, friends, and loved ones.

Mrs. Gossett was a loving person. She loved Larry, her children, grandchildren and all of her family. She was a wonderful mother and grandmother. She had an excellent memory, and knew everyone’s birthday. She would make it a point to be the first one to call when your day came around.

She had a “giddy” laugh that was unmistakable. She loved to fish. She had taken all of her kids and grandchildren at one time or another.

She was an excellent cook and was well known for her fried chicken fingers and pinto beans. She also loved her Pepsi. It was her favorite beverage by far, and it was even better when paired with a Zero candy bar.

Graveside services will be conducted by Mike Kendrick on 27 Sep 2020 at 2:00 PM at Howard Cemetery, Linden, TN.
