Olean Angie CORKERN

Ellis Cemetery
Washington County,
Louisiana

March 25, 1925 - November 1, 2006

Daughter of Purcell and Ina Renfroe Knight.

She was preceded by her husband Olan Q. Corkern, 1 son Jeffrey Lynn Corkern; 2 brothers L C Knight and William Otto Knight; 3 sisters Melba J Hutsell, Christine R Thomas and Maudie L Clancy.

she was a resident of Franklinton, La. she was a descendant of one of the founding families of Washington parish in the 1700’s. at one time she was the co-owner of Covington school of beauty culture; she was the owner and operator of a beauty shop in Franklinton. she was retired from the lsu extension services as a home demonstration agent. she didn't let her age stop her nor keep her at home. she was the commissioner in charge of the voting in her district and a very active member of Franklinton First Baptist Church, she still loved to travel and painting was a must. no doubt about it… she was the rock and backbone of her family. she was beloved by all that ever met her and her beautiful smile will be sorely missed. she was the eternal optimist!
