Hestie D. Mann, 70, of White Sulphur Springs, WV, passed away Sunday, December 7, 2014.
Born September 4, 1944, in Caldwell, WV, she was the daughter of the late Garfield and Lula Richmond of Organ Cave, WV.
Hestie was a long time resident of White Sulphur Springs, where she lived since leaving her childhood home in Caldwell. She graduated from White Sulphur Springs High School and worked at The Greenbrier hotel her entire life until her retirement.
