On May 10, 2012, at Elizabeth House in Hendersonville, N.C., Judith Anne Nolan Medlin’s spirit gently eased away from her body and joined the spirits of the righteous who preceded her.
Judy, as she was known, 71, was a native of Lake Village, Ark. She was the daughter of the late Julius and Lucille Nolan. She was a graduate of Freed-Hardeman University and Lipscomb University.
Surviving are her husband of 49 years, Jack B. Medlin; son, Jack B. Medlin II; daughter, Joy Dense Hanson; grandchildren, Juliana Hanson, Jonathan Hanson and Jackson Hanson; a brother, Jimmy Nolan and wife, Jackie of Greenville, Miss.; several nieces and nephews.
On Friday, May 25, the family will receive friends from 4 – 7 p.m. at the Don Mintz Log House on Ozone Drive in Saluda.
On June 2 at 2 p.m., a memorial service will be held at the Methodist Church in Dowelltown, Tenn., which she considered her second home. Milton Sewell, chancellor and past president of Freed-Hardeman University, will give her eulogy.
In lieu of flowers, a memorial fund has been established with Suntrust Bank. Donations can be made at any Suntrust Bank in the United States. Donations should be made in the name of the Jack Brice Medlin memorial fund. The words “memorial fund” must be included. Funds not used for the memorial will be donated to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
