Mrs. Boulware was born July 17, 1930 in Zavalla, Texas to the late Dora Etta (Rogers) and Condy Etcel George, and died Saturday, February 29, 2020 in Rock Haven Nursing Home in Nacogdoches.

She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Wallace Boulware; son, George Alfred Boulware; brother, Lynn George, and sisters, Bernice Rhodes and Maurice Kinner.

Pallbearers will be Brandon Boulware, Chad Murray, Mason Boulware, Tony Kinner, David Berryhill, and Josiah Dickinson.

The family would like to extend special thanks to the staff of Huntington Health Care, Rock Haven Nursing Home, and Legacy Hospice for their love and support.

The family will welcome friends and loved ones from 12:00 to 2:00 p.m. Wednesday prior to the service.
