The Life & Legacy of
Mrs. Maggie Lean Fudge
Sunrise: February 17, 1924 - Sunset: November 13, 2016
Maggie Lean Walters, affectionately known as Mother and Grandmother to her family, was born to the parentage of the late Mr. Green Walters, Sr. and Mrs. Annie Witchard Walters on February 17, 1924 in Byromville, Georgia. Maggie met the love of her life and became the devoted wife of the late Mr. Eddie Fudge, Sr. To this union, nine wonderful children were born. The family relocated to the city of Montezuma, Georgia where Maggie called home. Maggie confessed Christ as her savior and joined the Mt. Olive Baptist Church at an early age. She served faithfully for many dedicated years as Head Senior Usher. Maggie supported and served on many auxiliaries and committees of the church, until her health began to fail.

Maggie was preceded in death by two loving and devoted sons, Theotis Fudge, Sr. and Eddie Fudge, Jr. She was also preceded in death by her loving, devoted and beautiful granddaughters, Delores Ann Brown and Felecia June Thomas, and her loving and devoted grandsons, Gregory Thomas, Roderick Fudge and Anthony West, Sr.  She was also preceded in death by a host of devoted and loving brothers and sisters, Lloyd Walters, Green Walters, Jr., Alvenia McKenzie, Willie Maude Lester, Willie Mae Simpson, Minnie Lee Oglesby and Bertha Lee Walters Hamilton.

Maggie retired from Southern Frozen Foods, Inc. in Montezuma, Georgia after 22 years of dedicated service as a Team Lead/Grader. Maggie loved to cook for her family and never missed an opportunity to share the love of God with her family and friends. Maggie was instrumental in managing and cooking at the Custard Cottage Café downtown Montezuma in the 1970’s. It was there that she shared her many recipes for her famous homemade pastries and desserts. Her favorite saying was “I have plenty, help yourself.” She never missed an opportunity to prepare a home-cooked meal for her family when they came to visit, from far and near.

Maggie L. Fudge, heard the call of her Lord and Savior on Sunday, November 13, 2016 from labor to rest. Maggie leaves to cherish a legacy of love to her loving and devoted children, Lillie Thomas (Rev. David), Arlena Fudge, Willie Frank Fudge, Sr. (Marilyn), and Peggy L. Fudge, all of Montezuma, Georgia, Annie L. Brown Warner Robins, Georgia, Vanessa Fudge and Leon Fudge (Carmen) all of Atlanta, Georgia; a loving and devoted granddaughter whom she reared as her own daughter, Tarshea Fudge-Riley (Christopher) of Montezuma, Georgia; several loving and devoted grandchildren whom she reared for a period of time and loved very dearly. Christina R. Brown and Jerel L. Brown of Warner Robins, Georgia, Stanley Brown, Jr. and Sheanglela B. Norwood, both of Stone Mountain, Georgia, Darren Hall of Montezuma, Georgia and Carmela Fudge Harris Atlanta, Georgia; a loving and devoted brother Danny Walters, Sr. (Gwendolyn), Akron Ohio; loving and devoted sisters, Lelia Lester, Tampa, Florida and Lena Reddick, Akron, Ohio; a loving and devoted brother-in-law, James Lewis Fudge of Montezuma, Georgia. Maggie leaves to cherish a beautiful generation of grands, great grands and great great grands. Maggie will truly be missed by a host of loving family members, loving nieces and nephews throughout California, Georgia, Florida, Atlanta and Ohio.  Her legacy and quiet, gentle spirit will forever be treasured in the Spaulding community in which she invited many to share her famous Sunday dinners. Many adopted Mrs. Maggie as their Godmother and Grandmother, for she never turned them away. She loved and treated them as her own children and family.

I want to offer my condolences to the Fudge family and friends. It is a painful thing to lose a love one in death, regardless of how long they have lived. So painful death is that even Jesus, when Lazarus died, "gave way to tears"(John 11: 35). It pains our Creator, too, and he has promised to bring our love one back to life at Isaiah 26:19 "Your dead will rise ...Awake and shout a joyfully you residents in the dust! ...the earth will let those powerless in death come to life" then "he will swallow up death forever …"(Isaiah 25:8). I hope these words give you comfort

To family and friends...A life without tears, death, and pain will soon be a reality. Please know that Jehovah God cares for you and feels for you in your pain(1 Peter 5:7). He has promised in the near future to do away with death and tears(Revelation 21:3,4), and promise to resurrect the dead(John 5:28,29). Lazarus was dead 4 days and Jesus called him out of the tomb showing what he will do in the future. So, have faith in Jehovah God's promises and find real hope and the strength you need during this time of sorrow.

Please accept my sincere condolences and sorrow for the loss of your loved one. I am aware of the pain and grief that you are feeling at this time, because I have suffered the same in the past.

I want to share with you the comfort that I received from God's word. the Bible, which I truly needed during my time of distress. "Draw close to God and he will draw close to you." (James 4:8). The Bible makes this comforting promise: "Jehovah is near to those that are broken at heart and those who are crushed in spirit, he saves." (Psalm 34:19).

How happy you will be when Maggie is returned to you on a paradise Earth, where sickness, old age and death will be no more (Revelation 21:3 4).

In Paradise on Earth, the dead will rise be reunited with their loved ones.

I would like to express my sincere condolences to your family on the loss of your loved one; may your hearts find these promises from God's word comforting; "All those in the memorial tombs(graves)will hear his voice and come out"John 5:28,29. "There will be no more sickness" Isaiah 33:24. "And he will swallow up death forever"Isaiah 25:8. Do not dismay, God has promised and soon, it shall be so Titus 1:2
