Minnie Pearl Blue was born March 5,1949 to the late Fedow Blue and late Nellie Wells Haugabook.

She was a faithful member of the Brown Chapel Baptist Church  where she served on the Usher Board. She also served wherever she was needed.

Minnie was a proud 1967 graduate of the historic D.F. Douglass High School and a 1972 graduate of Voorhees College with a Bachelor of Science Degree in English. She was also a 1978 graduate of Atlanta Area Technical School where she majored in Basic Childcare. She was preceded in death by her brother, Horatio Walker.

Minnie worked as a Lead Teacher for over 20 years at several headstarts such as Economic Opportunity Atlanta Headstart Child Development Program, Providence Learning Center and Development Corporation Headstart, Morris Brown College Headstart, and Clark Atlanta University Headstart Program.

Throughout her years of teaching, she received countless  certificates and awards.

On Thursday evening, August 26, 2021, Jesus sent his angels to guide her home. When she reached Heaven she said my cares are all past, I’m home at last.

Minnie leaves a legacy of love and many wonderful memories to her beloved family which includes her loving and devoted great niece, Lunden Zoe Hill, Montezuma, Georgia, whom she was instrumental in her upbringing; six  siblings and their spouse, Willie Walker (Connie), Montezuma, Georgia, Robert Johnny Buckner (Alice), Molena, Georgia, Mary Diane Ross, Marshallville, Georgia, Francine Stewart, Eatonville, Florida, Gloria Wells (Wesley Owens), Montezuma, Georgia, Charlette King (Raymond), Eatonville, Florida; aunts and uncles, John Blue (Artisher), Birder Mae Wright (Columbus), Polly Marin (Ben Richard), Charles C.
