Ellen Yvonne Giles Baldwin, age 81, of McDonough, Georgia was welcomed to our Father's home on Friday, September 9, 2022. She was born in Maryville, TN to the late Carra Giles and Pearl Burris Giles. In addition to her parents, she was reunited in Heaven with her husband of 62 years, Gerald Mack Baldwin; her daughter, Kim Pressley; a granddaughter, Christy Riddle; and her brother, Lannie (Agnes) Giles.
Yvonne will be remembered most for her love and acceptance of those around her. She was the most loving and caring mother, grandmother, and matriarch any family could ask for. She was a God-fearing Christian who never failed to express her love vocally and through her actions; and she did it well. She was a true Southern Belle; her accent and cooking represented her Tennessee roots. She retired from State Farm Insurance Company as a Claims Coordinator. She will be missed here, but we find joy and hope knowing she has been reunited with those who went "Home" before her.
She leaves behind to carry on her legacy, son, Stephen Bryan (Patty) Baldwin; grandchildren, Jamie (Crystal) Pressley, Rusty (Tracie) Pressley, Jennifer (Frank) Goodman, Nikki (Mat) Marchbank. Sabrina (Scott) Fox, Jennifer Anderson; 16 great-grandchildren; four great-great-grandchildren; nephew, Chuck Giles; niece, Leigh (Mark) Reid; and a host of other family members and friends.
Funeral Services will be held at 2:00 PM on Tuesday, September 13, 2022 in the East Chapel of Cannon Cleveland Funeral Directors with Rev. Michelle Strall officiating. Interment will follow at Eastlawn Memorial Park, 640 McGarity Road, McDonough, GA. Family will receive friends one hour prior to the service at the funeral home.
