Obituary of Dola Raye Berryhill

Dola Berryhill
March 29, 1943 – April 6, 2025

With heartfelt sadness, we announce the passing of our beloved mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, Dola Berryhill, who now joins her beloved husband, Clarence Robert Berryhill on April 6, 2025, at the age of 82.

Born in Lawrenceburg, Tennessee, on March 29, 1943, Dola was a woman known for her deep love, quiet strength, and unwavering devotion to her family. She was the anchor of our lives—always offering comfort, wisdom, and unconditional love.

Dola was preceded in death by her loving husband, Clarence Berryhill, and her brothers, Billy McGuire and James Edward McGuire. She is survived by her three children, who were the pride and joy of her life: Lisa (Denny) Brown, Becky Burge, and Bob (Kim) Berryhill. She also leaves behind her dear siblings, Howard “Huck” Curtis McGuire and Ora (Gene) Green.

Dola’s legacy lives on through her grandchildren: Paige (Chris) McKinney and Danielle Brown; Erika Burge and Shelly Branom; Amanda (Hector) Acevedo; and Brock (Sara) Berryhill—each of whom held a special place in her heart. Her love and influence continue to shine in the lives of her great-grandchildren, who brought her so much joy and laughter.

After many years of hard work, Dola retired from Ozark Airlines and spent her time doing the things she loved gardening, shopping, relaxing at home, and cherishing every moment with her family. She had a gift for making everyone feel welcome, cared for, and loved beyond measure.

Her memory will forever be treasured, and her presence will be deeply missed by all who were blessed to know her.
