Ruth Millsaps Dillard passed away Wednesday, September 12, 2012, at Life Care of Elizabethton.

Today our family, friends and community celebrate the life of Ruth Millsaps Dillard. Ruth was born September 2, 1915, in Mountain City, TN, to the late David and Amelia Moore Nave.

Ruth and her family moved from Old Butler in 1948. She and her family relocated to the present day community of Butler, TN. Prior to her death she was one of a handful of original surviving residents from Old Butler.

Ruth, along with her husband, were proprietors of Birdseye's Service Station and Grill for 30 years. Ruth had decades of fond memories and events that occurred over the years. She spoke fondly of the many friends she was blessed to know during her years in Butler. Ruth was active in the community and welcomed all to her home on Main Street.

During the move from Old Butler, Ruth would hear the sound of buildings being moved to the newly established community of Butler and with each home and business that relocated, she knew that another part of the original town was gone. Through her relentless spirit and determination, she along with her husband, built a home and business that would contribute in many ways to the community and be a loving place to raise their family.

As years passed, Ruth was always eager to share her knowledge of the community, the changes she lived through, and shared many of the stories she experienced with her many friends and neighbors. These are precious memories that will live on in our hearts forever.

Bo Matherly died August 19th, 9 days shy of his 61st birthday.

Bo died of complications following a delayed reaction to heparin. He is survived by Teresa, his wife of 39 years, son and daughter-in-law Daniel and Kathy Matherly, grand-daughter Ty Grace Matherly, mother Lorraine Matherly, sister Debbie Woodward and sister and brother-in-law Amelia and Jim Jarvis, nieces Shelley Sullivan, Aleshia Dodd and Amanda Fox, great nieces Caitlyn Sullivan, Kylie Fox, Kelsey Brown, great nephews Carter Sullivan, Kayden Fox, Urijah and Moses Dodd. Bo was preceded in death by his father, Bill Matherly, paternal grandparents Percy E and Verta Matherly, maternal grandparents Ellard (Bird Eye) Millsaps and Ruth Millsaps Dillard.

Bo worked at Stowers Machinery for over 44 years. He loved his job as Used Equipment Manager and he was proud to be a part of the Stowers family. Bo always said he was not going to quit work until it stopped being fun and part of that fun was the many contacts through work that became life-long friends.

Bo enjoyed life and aside from his family and work, boating on Norris Lake and Tennessee football were his passions. Bo always wanted to make sure everyone had fun and was well fed. We will miss his big smile and his infectious laugh and those Bo-isms that made him so loved by all.

The family wants to thank "The Bo Team" who helped us attempt to bring Bo back from the event of May 9th. That team is Ramona and Chuck Powell, Todd Jakoby, Larry Cummins, Rhonda Leuch, Shirley Calloway, Tony Parkerson, David Kerr and Wes Stowers. A special thank you to Nick Powell for helping to keep the lake house managed while we focused on Bo and a special thank you to Teresa's UPA family who helped support her with food, work and a chance to have some "normal" during the last three months.

The family also wants to thank the exceptional staff at UT Medical Center CVICU and at Select Specialty Hospital at Tennova North. From the rehab attempts to the realization Bo could not recover, you never waivered in your caring attitude for Bo and support for our family. You live and breathe "Let Hope Thrive" and are an example of how long term acute care should work.

Visitation will be on Saturday, August 25th from 1-4 PM at Sharon Baptist Church, 7916 Pedigo Road, Powell, TN. A memorial service will start at 4 PM.

The only way our family can make sense of what happened to Bo is to prevent other families from this experience. We will be working with UT Medical Center to find a way to identify patients at risk for Heparin Induced Thrombocytopenia (HIT), therefore, in lieu of flowers, please send donations in memory of Bo Matherly to UT Medical Center Development Office, 2121 Medical Center Way, Suite 110, Knoxville, TN 37920 for the Cardiac Research Gift Fund.
