Marjorie Daughety, known to most as Mama D, passed away peacefully on May 18, 2025, at the age of 101. Mama D never met a stranger and welcomed everyone into her home. She was a beloved mother and grandmother to her family and friends alike.

Visitation will be Sunday, May 25 at Williams Funeral Home in Florence, Alabama from 1:00 – 2:30 pm. The service will start at 2:30 pm in the chapel with burial following in Sheffield Oakwood Cemetery.

Mama D was a longtime resident of Muscle Shoals, AL, where she was a member of Woodward Avenue Baptist Church, active in the XYZ club, volunteered countless hours at Helen Keller Hospital, and was well-known across the tri-cities as a seamstress. Certainly, there are people to this day who remember getting their clothes, formal dresses, cheerleading uniforms, letterman jackets, and more from the sweet lady at 509 W. Pasadena Avenue.

Her home was a haven filled with family, friends, and laughter. On most days, the driveway would be overflowing with cars, and we would be shoulder to shoulder at the table set up for a day of Hand & Foot or Rummikub.

Mama D was a strong woman with a kind soul. She touched so many people in her life, and we will all cherish the unconditional love and kindness she bestowed upon us. She was so proud of her family, and we will honor her memory by striving to be the best versions of ourselves.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Charles H. Daughety; her brother, Sonny Camadello; her sister, Helen Edwards; and her daughters, Charlotte Clark and Peggy Smith. She is survived by her daughter, Margie Ann (Wayne) Bendall, and numerous grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren.
