Ruth Bettesue Teffeteller Mogridge, age 89, went home to be with her Lord and Savior on Thursday, October 1, 2020, at Brookdale Sandy Springs with her devoted husband of 65 years by her side. She was a lifelong resident of Blount County, and of the Baptist faith. She was preceded in death by her parents, Alvin Teffeteller and Moda Shepherd; son, Dan Quinn Feezell; and siblings, Ralph Teffeteller, Dorothy Bunch, Barbara Hightower, Geraldine Kelly, Shirley Whitehead, Helen Eleanor Hicks, and Nelly Burris. She is survived by her loving husband, Jake Mogridge; daughter and son-in-law, Tammy and Rocky Montgomery; grandson and granddaughter-in-law, Jonathan and Melissa Montgomery; granddaughter, Caitlin Montgomery; great grandchildren, Darian and Charles Chappell; many beautiful nieces and nephews, sister-in-law Hazel Tipton, several cousins, friends, and half siblings, Patricia Fay Johnson, Sonya Shepherd, Judy Willard, and Jerry Shepherd. Until her declining health made it impossible, she dearly loved going to church, spending time with family and friends, shopping til she dropped while wearing blue jeans and her much loved cowboy boots, and experimenting with ethnic foods. She found great comfort in spending time on the sofa with her loyal dog, Tulip. Friends may call at their convenience from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm on Tuesday, October 6, 2020 at Miller Funeral Home. The funeral service will take place at the pavilion in Grandview Cemetery at 3:00 pm on Tuesday, October 6 with Rev. Darrell Croft officiating.
