Lelia Hall, age 76 of Clinton met Jesus face to face on Thursday, July 11, 2019 at Parkwest Medical Center.  Best known as Mrs. Lelia for her 30 plus years of cafeterial work at Clinton Elementary School.  Mrs. Lelia made sure that every child that came to the cafeteria was well fed and loved.  Mrs. Lelia was either known for her unselfish heart or her stubborn personality.  If you were fortunate you would see the first trait for the blessed individuals that knew her very well, they would get to see both qualities.  Mrs. Lelia never met a stranger.  She was always willing to lend a hand, a heart, an ear, an opinion, or anything else needed.  Mrs. Lelia loved working in flowers, looking for bargains, bragging about her children and grandchildren, going to church, and seeing new places.  She passed peacefully as she was surrounded by loved lones. Mrs. Lelia  was preceded in death by her parents, Virgil and Rhoda Silcox; brothers, Bedford and Jimmy Silcox.
