She was born in Chattanooga, TN, to the late Murphy and Theola Cook Yates and was raised by her grandmother whom she loved dearly, Loudora Cook.

She was the glue to her family and helped her son and husband maintain their many rental properties and residential building businesses. Her family later built and ran the two Peachtree Minit Mart Stores in Lee County where she proudly served the community and loved meeting new people. Above all, she loved caring for her husband and family. In her free time, she enjoyed baking and cooking big dinners for her family to enjoy. Mrs. Velma was an avid Braves fan and loved to watch her grandchildren play ball. A loving wife, mother, grandmother, and sister, she will be greatly missed by all.
