Mattie Lee Compton

January 30, 1930 — September 19, 2023

Mattie Compton, born on January 30, 1930, in Forsyth County, NC, peacefully passed away on September 19, 2023, at Grayson Creek Assisted Living in Lexington, NC. She dedicated her life to her family, her career, and her community, leaving behind a legacy of love, kindness, and hard work.

Mattie's professional journey led her to a fulfilling career in Human Resources at Davidson Water in Lexington, NC, where her dedication and leadership made a lasting impact. Her commitment to her work was matched only by her devotion to her family.

She is survived by her beloved brother, Bill Edwards, and by her four cherished sisters, Eva Mae Williams, Shirley Roberts, Kay Rudisill, and Bobbie Jo Harper, along with Bobbie Jo's husband, Steve. Mattie's memory will be forever cherished by her five grandchildren and 17 great-grandchildren. She is also remembered by her daughter-in-law Karen Disher and brother-in-law, Mike Smith.

Mattie is preceded in death by her parents, William Leroy Edwards, Sr., and Viola Mae Glascoe Edwards, as well as her loving husband, Clyde Walter Disher, Sr. She is also reunited with her second husband, Raymond "Rooster" Mason Compton, her son, Clyde "Sonny" Walter Disher, Jr., and daughter, Vickie Ann Disher Wooten. Mattie joins her siblings in eternal peace, including brothers-in-law, Richard "Buck" Williams, Harold Roberts, Don Wilhelm, Lonnie Bragg, Robert Rudisill, sisters, Margie Wilhelm, Sylvia Bragg, and Jackie Smith. She is also reunited with her sister-in-law, Lynn Edwards.
