Please donate to Paws of Hertford County in memory of Sarah Ann Joyner Culpepper

Mrs. Culpepper was born on April 2, 1944, to the late A.S. “Monk” Joyner and Hilda Thompson Joyner. She was a 1962 graduate of Woodland-Olney High School and a 1966 graduate of Guilford College. It was at Guilford that she met “Woo” Culpepper, her future husband of 54 years.

She has two sons, Luther B. Culpepper, IV, and A. Stanley Culpepper. She has one granddaughter, Sarah Grayce Culpepper, the daughter of Stanley and Lisa Culpepper of Tifton, Georgia. Sarah Grayce’s first name was given to her in honor of Mrs. Culpepper, whose first name was given to her in honor of her own grandmother’s life-long nickname. Mrs. Culpepper also considered Katie Lee Vinson, daughter of Kelly and Sharon Vinson of Oak Island, as her eldest granddaughter.

Mrs. Culpepper was the light and life of her family; she was the absolute center of their lives. As reflected in the Book of Proverbs, her sons do rise up and call her blessed.

Thanks for your donation!
