Obituary of Adrain Bentley
CHILHOWIE, Va.: ADRAIN JANE "SUPERMOM" BENTLEY, age 71, died Wednesday, November 11, 2015 at Smyth County Community Hospital.
Jane absolutely loved her family. She would have done anything for her four girls and her number one son. She was a loving super-mom to many at Wythe Raceway, mom to her kids and Nanny Jane to her grandchildren. She was a care taker in every sense of the word. Jane would put others needs in front of her own and everyone loved her canned foods. She was fun and loud and outspoken, but she was the glue that kept her family together. She was a Baptist by faith. Jane will be missed by so many family and friends forever and ever.
She was preceded in death by her mother, Evelyn Blevins; nanny, Etta Bailey; and sister, Etta Rhea Altizer.
