She was preceded in death by her father and mother, Arthur and Geneva Vines; several brothers and sisters; and her husband, Clarence Trivett. Mrs. Trivett grew up in Flat Springs, Tennessee, and in 1947 married Clarence Trivett. His career took them to many places, but in 1955 they purchased and settled on a farm in Bristol, Tennessee. Her three loves in life were her faith in God, her family and her home. She gave her life to the Lord as a pre-teen and lived for Him thereafter. She was a member of Mt. Holston Baptist Church for the past fifty years and loved her church family dearly. She loved to sing in the choir and learned from her father to read shaped note music at an early age. Most family gatherings included singing, right up until her death. She read her Bible faithfully and taught her children many Bible verses. One of the highlights of her life was the trip she made to Israel in 1999. Mrs. Trivett retired from the Bristol Regional Medical Center, where she worked in the Birthing Center for thirty-five years. She loved every baby born there and while shopping often met mothers who remembered her. After she retired she spent time crocheting and tatting afghans, bedspreads, doilies, dolls and tablecloths that were either given as gifts or kept as family heirlooms. Her green thumb made the hill where the family home is located memorable. She is survived by four children, Carolyn (Steve) Bullock, Jacksonville, FL, Jimmy Trivett, Bluff City, Jeffrey Trivett, Piney Flats, Vicky (Phil) Keen, Bristol, TN; two sisters, Dora Wagner, Waconia, MN; Shirley (Allen) Harmon, Elk Park, NC; seven grandchildren; and several great-grandchildren.
