Geraldine Davenport Lush, a beloved sweet sister, was lost to a long battle with dementia on Dec. 17, 2024.

Known as Gerri, many in Fayetteville knew her from working at Raymond Meyers making his donuts, or selling furniture at several furniture stores, or playing basketball in high school. She had many talents. Gerri was quick-witted and very fun to be around.

Geraldine was preceded in death by her parents, Burr and Ellen Davenport; son, Gregory Lush; and two brothers, Wayne Davenport and Phillip Davenport. She is survived by one son, Richie Lush; grandchildren, Dallon Lush, Kennedy Lush, and Samantha Lush; three great-grandchildren; sisters, Joan Gardner and Mary Ann Mason; brothers, Wilkie Davenport and Mickey Davenport; and several nieces and nephews.

A graveside service was held Thursday, Dec. 19, 2024, at Mulberry Cemetery with Bro. James Strope officiating.
