Mrs. Thelma Jean White Till, who was 82 years old, sadly passed away on Tuesday, October 14, 2025, in Atmore, Alabama.
She had lived in Atmore her whole life and was a dedicated member of Brooks Memorial Baptist Church. Her faith and love for her community were evident throughout her life, and she will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
