Ms. Norma Jean Pace peacefully passed away at the age of 84 on August 4, 2022, at Maury Regional Medical Center in Columbia, TN. Ms. Pace was born on February 25, 1938, in Bethany, MO to the late William John Bower and Vera Jones. Along with her parents she was preceded in death by her loving husband Mr. Homer Lee Pace and her sister Carolyn Hensley.

She leaves behind to carry on her memory her children Brad (Tammy) Pace, Deborah Carroll, and Kim (Rick) Osborne, grandchildren Dustin (Kaley) Carroll, Danielle (Sheyenne) Reeves, Justin (Tabitha) Osborne, Trevor (Emily) Osborne, Braden, Brandon (Sarah), and Braxton (Rachel) Pace, Britton Collins, and Myra (Miles) Tenison. Ms. Pace is also survived by her great-grandchildren Braylin, Ayden Maddox Reeves, Addie, Keely, Mark, and Levi Osborne, Kilar, Kaden, Kinley, Blakelyn, and Andalyn Pace, Madi Collins, and Ripplin Tenison

For all that have known Ms. Pace knew she had a heart of gold. She was a giving soul and whether you were family or those she claimed as family, she always made sure you were taken care of.  Jean enjoyed cooking for her family and always loved every minute of being surrounded by them, especially her grandbabies.  When she wasn’t cooking up a grand meal she would head out for a day of shopping. Ms. Pace has made a mark on this world and in the hearts of many Lewis County citizens. She will be missed by so many!

The family will have visitation on Sunday August 7, 2022, from 11:00-2:00 in the chapel of Adair Funeral & Cremation Services. The funeral service will begin at 2:00 pm with burial to follow at Edwards Cemetery in Hohenwald. Brother Justin Osborne will be officiating.
