Survivors include her son, Jimmy Kincaid; her sister, Juanita Greene and many nephews and nieces that she adored. She became owner of Crossroads Market in Gamewell, and her job there lasted over 40 years.With a smile on her face, she welcomed her customers, and she often enjoyed making goody bags for the children.
