Harriett Lyttle Woodson
Aug. 22, 1935 – Jan. 13, 2022
Harriett Marie Lyttle Woodson, 86, passed away peacefully at home in Goochland County on Thursday, January 13, 2022.
She was born on August 22, 1935, to the late David Lyttle and Mariah Scott Lyttle. Preceding her in death her beloved grandmother, Lucy Ann Hopkins Scott; brother, Roger Lyttle; husband, Henry Woodson, Sr.; and her sons: Henry, Jr. (“Boone”), Dwayne, and David. She leaves to cherish her memory: son, Mark Woodson; daughters: Patricia Anthony, Jacqueline Wright (Norman), Deborah Woodson, Jewel Wright (Michael), and Janet Senegar; sister-in-law, Helen Cox Lyttle; daughters-in-law: Madie Coley Woodson, Paulette Trent Woodson, and Shirley Davis; 12 grandchildren; 9 great-grandchildren; and 3 great-great-grandsons; nieces and nephews—a devoted niece, Marian “Doll” Watson, and devoted neighbors: Adele Sampson, Elnora Tilton, and Lois Williams, and good friends Arlene and Shirley Smith, who phoned every day to check on her once her health started failing.
Harriett was born and raised in Goochland County–she lived her entire life in Maidens on Fairground Road. She retired from JCPenney (Willow Lawn) after 25+ years as a bookkeeper/ accounts payable clerk. She loved plants and gardening–it delighted her to see her flowers in bloom! She accepted Christ at an early age and joined Emmaus Baptist Church. Many years later in July 1994, she was baptized at the Richmond Coliseum as a Jehovah’s Witness. She served in two congregations: Tuckahoe and Goochland and always looked forward to attending the Annual Convention with Elnora and Lois until her health began to fail. Her memory will live on forever, especially each time we see beautiful trees, flowers, and plants–items she truly admired.
