She also spent much time designing and outfitting her “Strawberry House” and showed it off to anyone who came to visit. She was a member of Trenton United Methodist Church where she enjoyed singing in the choir. One of Lavonne’s greatest loves was being an aunt to all of her nieces and nephews, great nieces and nephews, and great great nieces and nephews.

Lavonne was preceded in death by her parents W.C. and Doris Payne of Rising Fawn and her husband Steve Grizzle. She is survived by sisters Lorraine (David) Fox and Maureen (Grady) Spencer; brother Roy (Dorothy) Payne, several nieces and nephews.
