Edna Lavinia Markham departed this earth on December 28, 2013 to be with her Lord and Savior. She was born October 4, 1928 in Lake City, Florida to her late father, Jessie Manuel Winningham, Sr. and mother, Ruth E. Crawford Winningham. She resided in Pahokee, FL most of her life and moved to Lake City where she married and began her own family. She was the center of life for her family and friends and always there when a family member needed her help. "Nanny" as she was affectionately called by her family, retired after thirty years as a food service manager for the Columbia County School System. She was raised during the Great Depression and had a tremendous appreciation for the basics of life and the gifts God has granted to us. She shared school recipes with her family and enjoyed making fruitcakes with her children and grandchildren at Christmas. She was a long-time volunteer at Cancer Care of North Florida after retirement, helping those who were in need of a loving touch during their most challenging times and she loved her personal physician, Dr. Waseem Khan for his caring and compassionate way. She was an active member of Calvary Baptist Church, sitting in the same pew every Sunday and serving in multiple positions. Nanny was extremely independent and strong until her passing. She loved her family and would tell them how much she loved them by saying "A bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck and a kiss too." She was preceded in death by her father, mother, children's father Arthur Bowman Markham, Jr., son David Markham, two life-long friends, Annie Mae Holiday, and Remell Lee, with whom she attended many gospel sings and enjoyed special trips and Vernon Cartrider who shared happy times with her in her later years. She is survived by daughters Pat Caldwell (Don), June Tolar (Ronnie), brother Jessie Winningham (Ann) five grandchildren Missy Lee (Mike), Teresa Barber (Tommy), Crystal Tolar (Zack), Jason Tolar, Cameron Tolar (fiancA
