Remembrances
I'm the the last grandchild born to Allie McClain and my mother Odis Davis was the 22nd and last child to Allie McClain. She died when I was just 12 yrs old and i remember my grandmother as a loving mother and grandmother. She is truly missed.
Allie McClain was my grandmother and was affectionately known as "Big Mamma". She was a strong woman with a great sense of humor and loving nature. I will always miss and love Big Mamma.
