Let the family know you care by sharing this tribute.
Elizabeth Gaye McCormick, 63, of Preston, Georgia passed peacefully early Monday morning, August 31, 2026, at Columbus Hospice in Columbus, Georgia.
Elizabeth was born on November 23, 1962, in Americus, Georgia to Albert Terrell Walker Jr. and Peggy Jean Heath Walker. She never met a stranger, enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren and loved shopping. She also enjoyed sipping on an ice-cold Coca-Cola while watching On Patrol: Live.
She was preceded in death by her parents Albert Terrell Walker Jr. and Peggy Walker of Preston Georgia.
She is survived by her son, Nicholas “Nick” Keith Biddle of Cusseta, Georgia, her daughter, Melissa Nicole Ball of Sevierville, Tennessee; five grandchildren, Kayleigh Thompson, Austin Ball, Kaleb Biddle, Kayden Biddle and Anzlee Ball; her great-grandchild Grayson Thompson; her brother Steve Walker of Preston, Georgia; and numerous nieces, nephews, extended family members and many caring friends.
If you knew Gaye, you were truly fortunate. Honor her memory in the way she would have wanted; by checking in on a neighbor, lending a helping hand, and loving your family a little louder.
A celebration of life will be announced at a later date.
Georgia Cremation-Columbus is assisting the family with the arrangements.

Linda Rogers says
I knew Gaye all my life! I was ten when she was born and that started a lifelong kinship! Our families, being kin to one another, spent a lot of time together visiting one another and going on vacations together to Florida and the mountains! Gaye was my shadow and I loved her!! We grew apart in our later years as she moved to the mountains in Tennessee! We would visit her up there though! Gaye was a very loving and kind person who loved her children and grandchildren very much!!!
I am praying for you both, Nick and Melissa and your children! I know y’all miss her terribly but you.will be with her again one day! I miss her, too and look forward to that day also! Stay close to God and He will comfort you all!!🙏🙏✝️
