Funeral services were held Friday for a Flomaton woman killed in an Evergreen, Ala., wreck Tuesday morning.

Evergreen Police said William Lee Henson, 64, of Red Level, had just pulled his truck out of a convenience store parking lot when the accident occurred. White’s 2007 Chevrolet Silverado ran directly into the logs.

White was on her way to Selma, Ala., as part of her job with the Federal Emergency Management Agency. White was a native of Pensacola and had been a resident of Flomaton for the past 20 years. She was a 1989 graduate of Flomaton High School.

Friends and relatives remembered White for the years she spent working with children as a juvenile probation officer.

She is survived by her parents, Steve and Linda White of Flomaton, and a daughter, Kiele Cristin Smith of Brewton.

    We worked in the medical fielf together in Atmore , AL. She was working in the Respiratory Department for Atmore Community Hospital and I worked for Atmore Ambulance., She was a happy person and I don’t think she knew what a stranger was. She met everyone with a smile. I will miss her.

    Degee and I graduated together and were friends for a long time. We actually started Kindergarten together at Mrs. Hines private Kindergarten together. We were in Brownies together and played together all the time when we were little. She was a very sweet, caring and kind person and she will forever be in the hearts of the class of 1989! We will never forget her……

    My heart was sad when I heard about Degee, she was a coworker of mine from the Atmore Hospital I pray that God will comfort you in your time of sorrow. Remember there is no sorrow that God can’t heal.
