Ms. Busby, 75, of Brookhaven, passed away December 18, 2021. She was born September 29, 1946, in Brookhaven,

a need or care for a hurting soul. She was a wonderful mother, grandmother, and great grandmother, and

she cherished all “her babies”, they were her world. Ms. Busby was a Christian and a member of Northview Baptist Church,

where she served her Savior and the faith family she loved. She will forever be remembered as a beautiful soul and cherished friend.

 

She is preceded in death by her parents and one granddaughter, Ava Jules Davis.

and Tywana Boyd; five grandchildren, Jessie King (Zach), Kenith Burr (Kristen), Cody McNeese (Kristina), Haley McNeese,

and Matthew McNeese; six great grandchildren, Braxton Nations, Mason King, Charlea McNeese, Everett King, Amayah Davis,

and Paisley McNeese. She is also survived by other loving family members and friends.

    Elois was so dear to our family. She helped care for my beloved mother through the last year of her life, and we will always think of her fondly.
    She was considerate, kind-hearted, and enhanced the quality of Mom's days. She was an advocate for our family, monitored mother's care, provided simple pleasures,
    and held her hand when she felt insecure and we, sadly, could not always be there. We are so grateful and blessed for having known her.

    Our deep sympathy for your family's loss. She talked of you all, especially "her babies", often with such obvious love and affection.
