Gloria Sue Prescott Denson

We said "We will see you again soon" to our beloved Mama Sue and she said "Hello!" to her beloved Savior at 1:35 p.m. on Saturday, September 4 ^th , 2021.

Mrs. Gloria Sue Prescott Denson, 76, of Bay Springs, a resident of Jasper General Nursing Home, peacefully departed from this world to be eternally joined with her Savior and family in Heaven.

Mrs. Denson was born on Sunday, January 21st, 1945, the only child of Mr. Arnold Hugh and Mrs. Vicie Knotts Prescott.  She was a member of Lake Como Baptist Church.

Mrs. Denson was a humble and faithful servant of her community. She never denied anyone in need. Affectionately known by so many as "Mama Sue, Mammaw Sue, Granny Sue and Suzy Q" she will best be remembered for her love of the Lord, her love for and devotion to her family, her dedication to Relay For Life for which she worked for 20+ years, her culinary skills (especially her biscuits) and her green thumb.

On July 2, 1962, she wed Charles Douglas Cannon. They were blessed with three children: John, Steven, and Amy. Later in life, on April 1, 1994, she wed W.K. Denson, Jr, to whom she was married until his passing in 2010.

Mrs. Denson is preceded in death by her parents Mr. Arnold Hugh and Mrs. Vicie Knotts Prescott, and her husband, W.K. Denson, Jr.
