Mrs. Hattie Mae Poteat Lipscomb

Blanch, NC - It is with profound sorrow that we announce the death of Mrs. Hattie Mae Poteat Lipscomb of Slade Road, Blanch, North Carolina. On the evening of Thursday, April 25, 2024; God Almighty in his perfect wisdom entered room 207 at the Caswell House in Yanceyville, North Carolina to call his child home.

Born on April 02, 1935, in Caswell County, North Carolina Hattie Mae was the daughter of the late John Wash and Alice Jane Rudd Poteat. She attended the local public schools and graduated from the Caswell Training School.

At an early age, she joined the High Rock Baptist Church and remained a member until God led her to Word of Faith Church; where she sang in the Adult Choir. Hattie Mae worked diligently there until God pressed upon her heart to help serve at Solid Rock Yanceyville Church; where she remained faithful until her declining health.

She was united with the late Harvey Chester Lipscomb in holy matrimony in 1955. They were blessed with six children to their union. Hattie Mae was a loving, kind, and sympathetic wife, mother, sister, neighbor, and friend. Her personality was the type who truly loved the Lord. She loved to sing His praises while beating her tambourine. She always had a word about the Lord, no matter “Where” and no matter with “Who”.

In addition to her parents and her husband, she was preceded in death by her brother: Isaiah Poteat; her grandson: Sandy Corbett III (Yum); her great-grandson: Troy Southern; and her two sons-in-law: Sandy Corbett, Jr. and Elder Curtis Jeffreys.
