Prior to that work and use of her strong business and financial acumen, Mrs. Carmichael served in furniture sales and had a strong gift for decorating and interior design. She often shared her talent by helping friends decorate their homes.
She was gifted artistically and savvy in business, traits she has left as a legacy for her daughter and grandchildren.
Mrs. Carmichael was the daughter of the late John “Dell” and Nettie Corine Brazier and was predeceased by an older brother, Spencer Brazier and a younger sister, Nettie Sue Brazier.
Surviving in addition to her daughter Donna (John) Isgett, are a granddaughter, Sarah Isgett (Will) Miles and a grandson, John Thomas Isgett, III as well as a host of nieces and nephews.
