Lola was born June 21, 1924, one of eight children of Robert and Hilma White Short in Portland, TN.
Lola was living in Nashville when she met and married Thomas E. Broadway in 1948. She was an active member of Lincoya Hills Baptist Church where she served as church secretary until 1988. She loved gardening, quilting, her Sunday School class, and spending time with her granddaughters.
Lola was predeceased by Thomas, her husband of 63 years. She is survived by her son, Michael (Ann); granddaughters Kristin Diamond (David) and Julie; and two great-grandchildren, Avery and Liam Diamond. She was also very close to Ann's family: David and Brianna; Mark and Carolina; Daniel, Jennie, Gus, and Charlie.
A visitation will be held from 2:00 to 4:00 pm on Sunday, July 10, 2016 at Woodlawn-Roesch-Patton Funeral Home in Nashville, TN with a private graveside service to follow.
The family wishes to thank Spring Arbor of Apex, NC for their care and support.
