Elaine Shaw Beauchamp died on Sunday, Aug. 20, 2017.

She was preceded in death by: her husband, Lester Glen Beauchamp Jr.; her parents, Austin and Mamie Beck Shaw; and a brother, Donald Shaw.

Her faith was apparent in everything she did, from church, to work and family. For many years she was the church secretary and treasurer, a Sunday School teacher and served on the church board. She was known as a prayer-warrior. Her greatest pleasure was taking care of her family and cooking. She enjoyed babysitting her grandchildren and nieces and nephews.

She worked part-time at the Harmony Cafe and for 15 years was the manager of the Iredell Livestock Cafe.

Smith and Zack Wallace; great-grandchildren, Ansley and Zoey Smith and Kaden and Skyler Reavis (due in October); sisters, Estelle S. Allen and Bonnie S. Troutman; sister-in-law, Inge Shaw; numerous nieces and nephews; and close friend and prayer-warrior partner, Judy Wooten.
