She is survived by her children: Shirley Basinger of Jonesboro, Lynn Blagg (Gene) of Little Rock, and William R. (Bill) Nunnally (Phyllis) of Austin; grandchildren: Matt Basinger, Jennifer Wenger (Keith), Stephen Blagg, and Elizabeth Thomas (Troy); and great grandchildren: Jonathan and Rachel Wenger, Abbie and Joseph Thomas. Other survivors include a sister, Mary Louise Gragson of California, and other family: Martha C. Weatherall, Jim Rogers (Donna), Vivian Gerlach (“T”), and numerous other family and friends. There will be a family graveside service at 9:00 a.m. Friday, August 15, at Roselawn Memorial Park.
