Bertha Mae Mcafee
November 5, 1947 — April 21, 2023
McAfee, M. Bertha, (Birdie) age 75, died peacefully on the afternoon of April 21, 2023. She was born on November 05, 1947, in Wayne County West Virginia, to the late Hazel Porter Workman and Ray Queen.
She was preceded in death by her best friend and love of her life Richard McAfee (Mac), her siblings Wanda Cole, Betty Reidlinger, Ray Queen and Great GrandChildren, Myles Kerr, Ellie Kerr, Riley Logan McAfee and Harper Jude McAfee.
She is survived by Daughters and sons-in-law, Lori and Fred Ashworth of Glenolden, Pa.; Lisa Turpin of Huber Hts., Ohio, Jessica (McAfee) and Daniel Horne of Huber Hts., Ohio; Sons and daughters-in-law, Wayne and Christina Cooke of Springboro, Ohio; Gregory and Naomi McAfee of Beavercreek, Ohio; Todd McAfee of Galion, Ohio; Brad and Tahanya McAfee of Lexington, Ohio. Grandchildren (22), Candice McAfee, Taylor (Hunter) Birch, Myranda (Dave) Kroha, Travis (Lucy) McAfee, Tabitha (Cameron) Kerr, Bradley McAfee II, Stephanie Ashworth, Megan Ashworth, Daniel Horne, Caitlin Turpin, Tiffany McAfee, David Horne, Joshua Gonzalez, Lily Horne, Violet Horne, Paige Cooke, Wyatt Cooke, Jaxon Cooke, Great Grandchildren (6), Kam Kerr, Parker Birch, Jaxtyn Kerr, Sawyer Birch, Emberly Birch, David Andrew Kroha (DAK).
She was at her happiest when she was surrounded by family. She always said she wished her kids were little again and lived at home. As everyone grew up, she fell in love with each grandchild and great grandchild that came along. She adored every moment with them and was known as Nana, not only to them but their friends and even the neighbor kids.
Outside of home, her passion was nursing, to which she dedicated over 30 years. She loved every minute of her time as a caregiver, and truly considered her coworkers and patients as her extended family. She was well known for her hard work, pranks, jokes, compassion and selflessness.
In her spare time, she enjoyed reading, watching Blue Bloods, Bible study, music and dancing with her friends. She made an impression on everyone she encountered. If you met her, you laughed, if you knew her, you loved, and if you were fortunate enough to get a pet name from her, you were number one.
The family will receive friends on Tuesday, May 2, 2023, from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm at Newcomer Funeral Home (3380 Dayton- Xenia Road, Beavercreek, Ohio 45342). Funeral Services will begin at 12:00 pm at the Funeral Home. Burial will follow at Miami Valley Memory Gardens (1639 E. Lytle 5-Points Rd. Centerville, Ohio 45458).
