Mrs. Maggie Lula Stevenson Harvey was born on December 22, 1907 in Winnsboro, SC to the late Minnie Young. She stopped by for "100 years" on her way home. She enjoyed being alone with her Lord and peacefully entered into eternal rest with him on October 31, 2008.

Early in her life "Ms. Shug" migrated to Winston-Salem, NC where she married the late Mr. Luther Harvey. While in Winston-Salem, NC she joined Hanes CME Church where she was a devoted member for over 75 years. She loved missionary work and singing hymns in the choir. She also retired from RJ Reynolds Tobacco Company.

Mrs. Lula was blessed to live a long life with health and strength. She was very proud to still have her driver's license and pursued to be as independent as possible. Her favorite pastimes were cooking and watching baseball, especially the Atlanta Braves.
