Augusta Mae Millwood Daniel

Well done, thy good and faithful servant! You have been faithful over a few things; I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord! Matthew 25:23
Augusta Mae Millwood Daniel left her earthly home and arrived at her heavenly home on Monday, May 5, 2025, at the age of 78. Augusta was born on Dec. 28, 1946, to Gus and Mae Fowler Millwood and had a childhood filled with wonderful memories in Eldridge, Ala. The youngest of three children, Augusta was the beloved baby of their family.
Augusta, better known as Mama or Mamo, to those who love her the most, was filled with both grit and grace. Her love for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ was evident in her daily life, and she instilled that love into her children, God-loves and all other loved ones. She was a proud member of Eldridge Church of Christ, and she thoroughly enjoyed the lunch plates they brought her every Thursday.
She met her true calling in life, becoming a mother, at the age of 18, when she gave birth to her son Billy Dewayne Stewart, and later to Ronda Stewart Tidwell and Heather Daniel Pate. They later gave her nine beautiful God-loves: Erynn Tidwell, Regan Tidwell, Grayson Stewart, Olivia Stewart, Anna Kate Stewart, Carter Pate, Noah Pate, Talbot Stewart and Collins Pate. She was the best Mama and Mamo in the whole entire world. She loved them with her whole entire heart, and they loved her back just as much (although she would argue that she loved them more).
There was not a mountain that Augusta would not move for her children or God-loves, and she took every chance she could to tell others about how much she adored them and how proud she was of them. Augusta was the epitome of a hard-worker and fought tooth and nail to give her children the best life possible. She was a proud employee of Continental Conveyor for many years and always enjoyed the company picnics. Thank you, Mama, for working so hard to help make our dreams come true.
Augusta loved to spend time with her family, whether it be trips to Chattanooga to visit Grayson, Olivia, Anna Kate and Talbot, or Huddle House and baseball games with Noah, Collins and Carter. She would never turn down a good yard sale or tomato sandwich and shared her love of finding a great deal with her family. She also enjoyed her coffee with French vanilla creamer.
She is survived by her best friends and children, Billy Stewart (Paige Stewart), Heather Pate (Darrell Pate) and Ronda Stewart Tidwell (Keith Tidwell); nine God-loves who adored their Mamo, Grayson Stewart (Marissa Parisek), Olivia Stewart, Anna Kate Stewart, Noah Pate, Carter Pate, Talbot Stewart, Collins Pate, Erynn Tidwell and Regan Tidwell. She is also survived by her loving older sister, Jean Holliday, and many loving nieces, nephews and friends who became family. A special thank you to Tammy Lynn for helping take such good care of Mamo. She loved her time with you.
She is preceded in death by her parents, Gus and Mae Millwood and her brother, Jerry Millwood.
We delight at the fact she has met Jesus face to face, but our earthly hearts are shattered by her loss. Mamo, our hearts are hurting, but we are so happy that you are Home.
Funeral services for Mrs. Daniel were held on May 8, 2025, at the Eldridge Church of Christ with burial following in the Tucker Cemetery near Eldridge.
