Elizabeth Grissom
Pope Boles
Apr 10, 1934 — Jan 9, 2025
Doyle
Mrs. Elizabeth Grissom Pope Boles, affectionately knonw as Liz, age 90 of Doyle, passed away at 8:18pm on Thursday, January 9, 2025 at her residence surrounded by her loving family.
Liz was born on April 10, 1934 in Spencer, Tennessee to the late Ambrose Smith and Minnie Jennings Grissom. She retired from Aquatech, where her specialty was the ability to repair Levi Jeans. Her life was a life of service to family, friends and neighbors. In service to others, she would gladly lend her talent of clothing repair to anyone that needed help as well as she was the neighborhood taxi for many of her neighbors and friends. She was always there for anyone who needed a ride to the doctor, store or to pay bills. Her service to others was also evident in she always wanted her family and guests well fed with either something she had bought or more proudly with something she had prepared, especially her chicken and dumplings.
Liz was a member of the Piney Church of Christ but has attended the Doyle Methodist Church for many years where she volunteered at the "Vision of Hope Center" in Doyle. She looked forward to going to the center every Thursday morning to be with friends and serve her community. It was a great disappointment to her when her health did not allow her to help any longer.
In addition to her parents, she is also preceded in death by husbands J.O. Pope and Odell Boles; sons Tom, David, Rick and Gary Pope; five brothers, Tom, Lowell, Edd, Glen and E.J. Grissom.
Survivors left to cherish her memory include her son Robert Neal "Bob" Pope and wife Sheila
