Beulah Frances Mangum Sanders
November 18, 1935 — January 12, 2021
God saw you getting tired When a cure was not to be. So He wrapped his arms around you, and whispered, "Come to me". You didn't deserve what you went through, So He gave you rest. God's garden must be beautiful, He only takes the best. And when I saw you sleeping, So peaceful and free from pain I could not wish you back, To suffer that again.
Beulah Frances Mangum Sanders was born November 28, 1935, to the late Dempsey Mangum and Merdie Allen Tharrington. After 85 years of celebrating life, she left us on Tuesday, January 12, 2021, at her home, with family by her side.
Beulah graduated from Johnston County Training School. She married the late David "Buff Sanders and spent many of her working years at Fieldcrest Mills, K.R. Edwards Tobacco Company, and Girsberger Inc. until retirement in Smithfield. Beulah was a lifelong member of St. Peter's Church of Christ where she served in the Nurse's Aid Committee and any other area that needed assistance.
