Dorothy Daniels Obituary

Dorothy Louise Watson Daniels of Georgetown, SC died peacefully Friday, January 22, 2021 at the age of 91. She was born March 31, 1929 to Henrietta Altman Watson and James Clement Watson in Brittons Neck, Marion County, South Carolina. Louise was the second youngest of ten children. She graduated from McClenaghan High School in Florence and graduated from Anderson College. She was married to the love of her life, her late husband, James Garland Daniels. Louise is survived by her three children, Patsy Daniels Fountain, James Charlie Daniels and wife Melanie, Henrietta Daniels Barber and husband Byron; her five grandchildren James Garland Daniels II, Charles Larry Fountain II and wife Stephanie, William Byron Barber III, James Walker Barber and wife Meredith, and John Watson Barber and wife Leslie; and six great grandchildren, Jeane, Kaitlyn, and Lilly Daniels, Trey and Carter Fountain, and John Watson Barber, Jr. Louise also has one surviving sister, Gladys Watson Humphries of Florence, SC. She was predeceased by her brothers Bishop Watson, LeGrand Watson, Hubert Watson, Carlysle Watson, Lester Meredith Watson and her sisters Leila Bachelor, Leona Watson, and Lillian Shepard.

Louise and her husband owned and operated the former Sampit Furniture, a mainstay on Front Street in Georgetown where locals convened on the rocking chairs to discuss the towns happenings. In addition, Louise volunteered at Brookgreen Gardens, Georgetown Hospital and was substitute teacher for many years. Louise had a genuine love for life and could always be seen with a smile on her face. Her love for music and dancing was only exceeded by her devotion to her family and faith. She was a member of the First Baptist Church and later years the Church of the Messiah in Georgetown, SC.

Louise's family and friends will forever be grateful for the love and support given by her faithful caregivers, Roxie Rogers, Sharon Logan, and Benzena McCray.

Graveside services will be elven o'clock Friday, January 29, 2021, in Pennyroyal Memorial Gardens. Officiating will be the Rev. Ross Chellis
