Brother Norman Lewis Mayfield was born August 16, 1907 in Vienna, Louisiana, to the union of Mr. Nelson and Gertrude Lewis Mayfield. He departed this life June 12, 1989.
Brother Mayfield became a member of the Mount Harmony Missionary Baptist Church under the pastorate of Reverend W. M. Kilgreas Church where he served as an usher with dignity until ill health intervened.
The dignified, quiet and Godly manner in the life of Brother Mayfield somehow attracted many people to him, and his conscientious and diligent service as a Christian won many friends from people of all walks of life. He was a devoted husband, a loving father, and a quiet, peaceful neighbor.
He was married to Sister Eula Mitchell. To this union two children were born, Eva who preceded him death and Carl Mayfield. He later was married to Sister Fedrice Spivey, May 13, 1936. To this union six (6) children were born. Artis Lee preceded him in death.
Brother Mayfield lived in Lawton, Oklahoma for eight months. During this time, he attended the St. John’s Baptist Church with his daughter. During his illness and death, the St. John’s Church Family was supportive, under the leadership of Reverend J. L. Davenport.
He leaves to cherish his memories: two (2) brothers, Mr. Brunner Lewis, Grambling; Mr. Sylvester Lewis of Ruston, Louisiana, four (4) sons, Mr. Carl L. Mayfield, Norman Eric Mayfield of Ruston, Louisiana, Earl. H. Mayfield and Arthur L. Mayfield of Winnfield, Louisiana; three (3) daughters, Mrs. Bobbie J. Williams of Lowton, Oklahoma, Mrs. Ollie M. Moore of Winnfield, Louisiana and Mrs. Diane Williams of Indianapolis, Indiana; seventeen (17) grandchildren of which Marvin Glenn of Worcester, Mass.
