Wylene was born in Marietta, Georgia, on January 21, 1931, and was the daughter of the late Hugh and Annie Bell Kent Groover. During the twenty-five years that she was in the Houston County area, she kept busy doing the things that she loved. Wylene loved to camp, she was an avid crafter, and was a proud member of the Crochet Club of Middle Georgia. Ms. Haney worked many years as a secretary until her retirement. Her loving husband, Wayne Dawling Haney; her son-in-law, Stephen Yeager; her sisters, Hazel Holcombe, Blanche Lindley; her nephew, Hugh Holcombe; and her niece, Beverly Lindey Kalter, preceded her in death.
Left to cherish the memories they shared with Wylene are her loving daughter, Lynne Haney Yeager; sister-in-law, Kate Yeager; nieces and nephews that lovingly called her “Aunt Doodle”, Cathy Holcombe Jenkins, Sam P. Lindley, Jody Hardin, Mickey Hardin and Carolyn Hardin.
