Jetty T. Cottongim

Jetty was a beloved woman during her incredible 92 years of life. She left this world to be with her Lord and Savior in the early hours Monday morning.

Jetty was born in 1931 to two loving parents, Portland and Delia Disney, and was raised in Hendricks County, IN. She married at the age of 16 to Henry Cottongim. After losing her husband, far too soon, she successfully raised their 2 daughters, Brenda and Robin. She also spent 30+ years as a cook before retiring from Hendricks Regional Health. After retirement, she focused on her love of family and nature, always admiring God's handiwork.

We will remember Jetty for her love of flowers, birds, fossils, Nibbles (her cat), her delicious goodies, and being a true prayer warrior; who knew the Lord was a miracle worker, but on His time.

Jetty was preceded in death by her parents, Portland and Delia, and her one and only love, husband, Henry. She left behind, for now, daughters - Brenda Lawson, Robin and Rusty (husband) Pickett. Grandchildren - Michelle and John (husband) Martin, Chris and Angie (wife) Edwards. 6 great-grandchildren - Justin and Jessica (fiancé'), Emmalie, Jake, Corbin, Caleb, and Grace. Also, 5 great-great grandchildren. Lastly, numerous family members, either by blood or love.

This amazing woman was the cornerstone of our family. While we find comfort in knowing that Heaven gained an angel, we cannot help but feel the tremendous heart break that our matriarch is no longer with us.

Per her wishes, there will be no visitation or funeral. She did not want anyone standing around crying over her, as she is finally home at last.
