Jennie Kesler Lemley

She was born April 11, 1929, in Stanly County to the late William Kesler and Verna Parker Kesler.
Mrs. Lemley was employed in the textile industry with Cone Mills over 40 years. She was a faithful member of Bethel Baptist Church in Rockwell until declining health.
She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother and friend. Everyone would call Jennie for advice or wisdom and she always took time to listen. Her love for the Lord, her family and others were a shining testimony. Her warm smile and great sense of humor will be treasured by her family and friends.
Preceding her in death were her precious son, Perry, in 2005, who she devoted her life to taking care of; and her brothers, Howell, Narvie and Roy Kesler.
Those left to treasure her memories are her loving, devoted husband of 60 years, Herman Lemley; daughter Ginger McNally (Rev. Dave McNally) of Winter Haven, Fla.; granddaughters Jennifer Evans (Bryan) of Lynchburg, Va., Janette McNally of Winter Haven, Fla.; and great-grandson Ashton Evans of Lynchburg, Va.
