Elizabeth Estell Bradley Duke

Elizabeth Estell Bradley Duke of Cedartown passed away suddenly just weeks before her 91st birthday.  Born in Haralson County, she was the daughter of James Hoyt Bradley and Frances Bradley.  In addition to her parents, Elizabeth is preceded in death by her husband, JD Duke and all her brothers and sisters.

Elizabeth grew up working on the farm and then worked for many years and retired from Gold Kist Poultry, Inc.  At home, she enjoyed being outdoors and spent many hours working and caring for her flowers. 

Elizabeth grew beautiful flowers and definitely had a green thumb.  Her inside hobbies included crocheting – she could crochet anything – and was talented at drawing, and painting. Elizabeth also loved animals, especially her dogs.  Her sweet spirit will be missed by all who knew her and loved her.

Left to cherish her memories are her son and daughter-in-law, Dwain and Donna Goodman of Cedartown; her two grandchildren and spouses, Chrissy and Trey Glisson of Rockmart and Bradley and Cristina Goodman of Salena, California; and her two great-grandchildren Haley Goodman and her husband Ben Worthy and Patricia Noel Goodman.

In keeping with the family’s wishes, Elizabeth will be cremated.  The family is planning a celebration of life at a later date.

Hutcheson’s Memorial Chapel & Crematory of Buchanan is honored to serve the cremation needs of the Duke family.

Mrs. Eunice McCormick Thompson

Mrs. Eunice McCormick Thompson was a woman whose life was a beautiful reflection of love, faith, and devotion to family. She passed away January 5, 2026 surrounded by that love she so freely gave throughout her life.

Eunice was born July 10, 1931 in Cleburne County, Alabama to the late Walter JD McCormick and Mattie Norrell McCormick. In addition to her parents, she is preceded in death by her husband of 50 years, Olis Warren Thompson; son, James W. Thompson; daughter in law, Judy P. Thompson; and brothers and sisters in law, Leon and Sarah McCormick and Earl and Catherine McCormick.

Family meant everything to Eunice. She found her greatest joy in caring for those she loved, always making sure everyone felt welcome, nourished, and cherished. Her love was not just spoken, it was shown in all she did.

She had a special gift for quilting, each stitch sewn by hand with love. Her cooking brought family together, filling the home with warmth. She would be the first to send a 7-up cake to a neighbor in need of feeling loved and noticed.

A woman whose love and acts of kindness were guided by her unwavering faith. She lived her beliefs daily, offering grace, compassion, and encouragement to all who knew her.

Eunice is survived by her sons and daughters in law, Anthony and Valerie Thompson, Michael and Darlene Thompson, and Gary Thompson, all of Muscadine, AL; grandchildren and their spouses, Cassie and Nick Addison, Julie and Shane Mann, Jason and Jennifer Thompson, Jennifer and Jason Taylor, Bree and Ryan Puckett, and Haley and Seth Statham; twelve great grandchildren and three great great grandchildren; and daughter in law, Vickie Thompson, of Tallapoosa, GA.
