Connie Frances Stanfield Denton, 86, of Maysville, went to be with her Lord and Savior on Wednesday, January 15, 2025.
Her faithfulness to her family and her church will be greatly missed. No doubt she was born to serve as she blessed so many with her cooking. She served many roles at Petersville Church of God for over 50 years. She has served as a song leader and piano player and most recently as treasurer and board member. She was retired from US Shoe Corporation in Flemingsburg where she worked for 26 years. She worked alongside her sister in her grocery store/restaurant as well. She was the wife of the late Bill Denton for 25 years.
She was born May 18, 1938, in Mason County, a daughter of the late Worth and Rena Hampton Stanfield.
Connie is survived by her two children, Wendell (Lana) Applegate of Tollesboro and Rena (Matthew) Bickley of Maysville; two stepchildren, Lisa Monteith and Kelly Denton of Tollesboro; four grandchildren, Denny (Andrea) Applegate of Foster, BJ (Sarah) Applegate of Vanceburg, Julie (Corey) Doyle of Flemingsburg, and Seth (Jaycey) Bickley of Maysville; and step-grandchildren, Jeremy Denton of Maysville and Scott (Stacey) Lewis, Robbie (Lisa) Lewis, Chris Lewis, Lindsay Huber, and Wesley Huber of Tollesboro.
She was blessed with numerous great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews; one great-great-grandchild; two sisters, Phyllis Garrison and Joyce (John) Summerfield of Maysville; and one brother, Milt (Phyllis) Stanfield of Tollesboro.
In addition to her husband and parents, she was preceded in death by two siblings, Ruth Hurst of Muses Mills and Linda O’Dell of Vanceburg; an infant brother, Worth Jr.; and a great-granddaughter.
