Virginia Wells Horton, 78, of Cleveland, passed away on Tuesday, Jan. 19, 2021, in a Chattanooga hospital.
She was born on June 16, 1942, in Gulfport, Miss., to the Rev. Odel and Mabel Wells. She married Johnathan David Horton on July 11, 1964, in Plattsburgh, Miss. She and David enjoyed 42 rich, adventurous years together in a marriage full of love and laughter until David went home to be with the Lord in May 2006.
She was a gifted vocalist, yet wanted to be a mathematician. Upon the advice of her older brother Gerald, she abandoned her studies in math to pursue music education. She earned a bachelor of music education at the University of Southern Mississippi, and a master of music education from the George Peabody School for Teachers in Nashville.
