Mary Evelyn Adcox

April 14, 1922 - September 13, 2014






Mary Evelyn Adcox, of Maumelle and England, Arkansas, died Saturday, September 13, 2014, at the age of 92. Mrs. Adcox is survived by her two daughters, Audrey Grisham and Carolyn Dobbins; son-in-law, T.A. Dobbins; one nephew, Larry Hollinger, four grandchildren and their spouses, Audrianna Grisham and David Hodges, Dannetta Grisham and Ronnie Hutchinson, Jeff and Donita Dobbins, Bruce and Angela Dobbins; six great-grandchildren, Cody, Misty, Shelby, Taylor and Hayley Dobbins, and Remi Hodges; and five great great-grandchildren.
Mrs. Adcox was predeceased by her husband, Windle William Adcox, four siblings, son-in-law Ronnie E. Grisham, as well as countless numbers of deer, duck, Crappie and catfish.
Born, April 14, 1922, Mary Evelyn Craig married Windle Adcox in 1941. The Adcox's farmed in Arkansas, Jefferson and Lonoke counties until the late 1980's. An avid outdoorsman, Mrs. Adcox enjoyed a lifelong love of fishing. Only three months ago, she could be spotted on Lake Willisten in Maumelle on her scooter retro fitted to hold fishing poles and a tackle box hauling in a ten pound catfish.
In her spare time, Mrs. Adcox made pillows for the patients at Arkansas Children's Hospital. This fine woman was an inspiration to everyone who knew her. Her family was blessed to have had the wisdom, knowledge and understanding acquired during her long life, passed on to them. We can only aspire to be of the same high quality as she.
Services will be held on Tuesday, September 16, 2014 at 2:00 pm at Roller England Funeral Home. Visitation will be one hour before services. Mrs. Adcox will be laid to rest next to her husband in Lone Tree Cemetery in Stuttgart, Arkansas immediately following.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made in her name to Arkansas Children's Hospital or the Maumelle Senior Wellness Center.
