Rebekah S. Waylor

Mrs. Rebekah S. Waylor, 80, passed away peacefully in her home on November 11, 2021. A life-long Georgia resident, Becky was born in Cedartown, lived in Decatur, Savannah, and Loganville before moving to Thomson. In each place, she focused on faith, family, and friends. Becky was also “Grandmommie” to the many children she nurtured in the home day care she started after the birth of her grandsons. She was preceded in death by her husband of 42 years, Alston Waylor, her parents, Hall and Lovella Shiflett, and her brother, Dwain Shiflett. Left to continue her love for others are daughters Toni (Rowe) Bowen and Jody (Jack) Boyd; grandchildren Joshua (Stephanie) Veiga, Jacob Veiga (Matthew), Allison (Nathan) Donatelli, Will (Marley) Bowen, Tiffany (Chad) Ledbetter, and Shannon (Korley) Brumbelow; great-grandchildren Brittany and CJ Ledbetter, Sarah and John Donatelli, Hudson and Harrison Brumbelow, and Dylan Claire Bowen; and other close in-laws, nephews, and dear friends. A celebration of Becky’s life will be held in January 2022. If desired, please make donations to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation or a charity of your choice.
