After a long battle with Parkinson’s disease, Ida “Christine” Powell, 83, of Salem, went to be with our Lord and Savior on Tuesday, February 11, 2020.
Christine is preceded in death by her first husband, Robert Almond; second husband, Kenneth Powell; and granddaughter, Madison Powell.
She is survived by son and daughter-in-law, Glenn and Lorie Powell, son and daughter-in-law, Robert and Desiree Almond; granddaughter, Elizabeth Almond; and very special friend, Dorothy Dickason.
She was a devout Christian. Nothing meant more to her than her love for God and her church friends and family. She was a long-time member of both Lynn Haven Baptist and West Salem Baptist Churches.
The family will be accepting visitors from 1 to 2 p.m. on Thursday, February 13, 2020, in the John M. Oakey & Son Chapel in Salem with a funeral service to immediately follow. She will be laid to rest at East Hill Cemetery in Salem. The Rev. Chris Kingery will officiate.
