    Marianne Wellborn

    June 11, 1922 - March 19, 2021

    Marianne Harrell Wellborn, 98, of Davidson, NC passed away on March 19, 2021 at her home in William’s Place. Marianne was born in Shreveport, Louisiana. She graduated from high school in Cuero, Texas. She moved to Harlingen, Texas in 1941 to manage the credit department at Montgomery Ward. Over the years she also worked at the Wellborn Piano Company, the Levy - Carvin Advertising Agency, Neiman Marcus and the IRS. While in Harlingen, she went on a double date / blind date. That is where she met her future husband – Bill Wellborn. Of course, Bill wasn’t her date. He was the date of the other woman! Three months later they were married. Shortly after that, Bill left for army basic training. Marianne and Bill were members of the Lawrenceville Presbyterian Church in Lawrenceville, Georgia for over 40 years before moving to Davidson, North Carolina in 2016. They celebrated 75 years of marriage on November 1, 2017. Marianne was preceded in death by her husband Bill, her daughters Kathy Wellborn Copeland and Gail Wellborn Shepherd. Survivors include her daughter Mary Elizabeth Wellborn Ramer and son William Barton Wellborn, Jr and six grand-children and seven great grand-children. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Lawrenceville Presbyterian Church or the organization of your choice. https://pclawrenceville.org/pledge-or-give-online/ Services will be private. James Funeral Home of Huntersville is serving the family
