She was an active member of Central Baptist Church, where she taught Sunday school for many years. She also served as past president of WMU and Merrymakers and sang in the Seraph Choir.

      She was a member of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union.

      She graduated from Brewton Parker College and later from Valdosta State College. For more than 30 years she taught first grade in the Ware County School System and was later involved in the Retired Teachers Association.

      She is survived by a son, Leonard P. Butler Jr. (wife Esperanza), of Lawrenceville; two daughters, Linda Lawrence (husband Aubrey), of Woodruff, S.C., and Jane Singletary (husband Lewis), of Valdosta; and four siblings, Nelda Cason Drinkwater, of Gaithersburg, Md.; Montine Cason Drupiewski, of Winter Park, Fla.; Richard Cason, of Lutz, Fla.; and Carol Cason Farr, of Waycross; seven grandchildren; three stepgrandchildren; five great-grandchildren; and a host of nieces, nephews and other relatives.

      She was also preceded in death by a sister, Doris Cason Williams, of Cottondale, Fla.; and a brother, Joseph B. Cason Jr., of Waycross.

      A funeral will be held at 1 1 a.m. Wednesday at Central Baptist Church in Waycross with burial following in Oakland Cemetery.
