Mrs. Layfield, lovingly known by all as “Granny,” was born August 5, 1930, in Macon County to Robert and Clemmie Lockwood Green. She was a devoted member of County Line Baptist Church and enjoyed being with her church family. Mrs. Layfield was a homemaker, a wonderful mother and grandmother, and cooked the best fried chicken and hamburgers in the state of Georgia. She was often found working on the farm with her late husband, Junior and loved getting her family involved shelling peas and during the day you could find her watching soap operas and gospel music shows.

Survivors include her two children, Melvin Layfield and Billy Layfield and his wife, Terri, all of Ideal, GA: six grandchildren, Scotty Layfield (Kelly) of Paducah, KY, Shelley Simmons (Travis) of Perry, GA, Lindsay Arrington (Nathan) of Ideal, GA, Steven Layfield (Ashley) of Macon, GA, Kimberly Albritton (Jeremy) of Ideal, GA and Elizabeth Stubbs (Justin) of Ideal, GA; eleven great-grandchildren, Tanner, Lane, Ryann, Hunter, Kaitlin, Hailyn, Will, Gray, Shep, Jaxton, Nora, Lane and Aubrey; and numerous nieces and nephews. 

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that memorial contributions be made to County Line Baptist Church, Samaritan’s Purse, Shoe Box Program, 6716 GA Hwy 240E, Ellaville, GA 31806.

The family would like to express their thanks to The Oaks Nursing & Personal Care Home for their wonderful care of Mrs. Layfield.
