Mag Jamerson West was born to the late James “Jim” Ashmon and the late Hester “Doll” Williams-Collier on November 23, 1934, in Montezuma, Georgia. She was the youngest of six children, who all proceeded her in death. In the absence of her siblings, Mag and her three nieces Willie Pearl Allen (Orlando, Florida), Ira B. Allen (Deceased) and Mary Lou Johnson (Montezuma, Georgia) shared a sisterly bond.
She was introduced to Christ as a child and was baptized at Zion Hill Baptist Church in Montezuma, Georgia where she also became a member. Mag was educated in the rural St. Paul Baptist Church in Macon County, Georgia. She was a dedicated employee of Kellwood Company in Perry, Georgia. She worked as a seamstress for 30 years until her retirement in 1997.
In July of 1953, Mag was united in holy matrimony to the late Lester West. This union blessed them with three daughters, Elaine West Turner (Montezuma, Georgia), Marion West McDonald (Montezuma, Georgia) and the late Eria West Jackson of Montezuma, Georgia. Mag was also the stepmother to Lester West Jr. (Teresa) of Miami, Florida and the late Beverly West Bates of Miami, Florida.
Those left to carry her legacy: her devoted daughters Marion West McDonald and Elaine West Turner, her darling grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces, great-nieces, nephews and great-nephews. Special thank you to Chelsey and Jordan McDonald who served as dedicated caregivers.
