Alida D Durham

Alida Dawn Durham, 47, was born May 2, 1971.  She went home to be with the Lord early Wednesday morning, May 2, 2018 at her home on her birthday after a brief illness.

She was a member of the Holston High Class of 1989.  Alida was a devoted employee of Stop-N-Go Market where she worked closely with the owners, sister, Pilar and brother-in-law, John Davis.  She was a kind-hearted and jovial person who loved to cook and sing.  Alida was a former member of Shiloh Presbyterian Church; however, most recently began attending Children of God Ministries.

She was preceded in death by her parents, James and Mildred Durham and brother, Barry Durham.
