Hattie Mae "Bossy" Woodall

Hattie Mae "Bossy" Woodall, 73, of Sandusky, passed away Wed., Sept. 27, 2023 at Firelands Regional Medical Center.

Bossy was born in Sumter, SC to her parents, Tally Rodgers and Betty Ruth Brown-Stokes.

Bossy graduated from Fifth Avenue High School in 1969 and then took up full-time employment within the William Morehead Federal Building in downtown Pittsburgh, where she worked for over 35 years, service to our country. After many years of hitting the pavement at 6 am and not getting home until 6 pm, Bossy retired and fell in love with her favorite pastime of horse-race betting and enjoying her freedom. She was a strong woman, mentally, physically, and emotionally. Bossy was a 20+ years breast cancer survivor along with other health related issues, but she never stopped fighting, no matter what life threw her way. She had a few genuine friends during her years here on earth. Maryann Stephens and Linda Loving were always recognized as her two closest and dearest friends. Her best friend of all was her mother, Betty Ruth Brown-Stokes. Those two were a powerhouse together and were the backbone of their immediate family. Those two women set the tone for the host of immediate family members to follow, and they both have left behind a legacy that will forever live!

She is survived by her only child, Jason M. Woodall, Sr.; a host of siblings who reside in SC, along with her siblings who reside in Pittsburgh, PA; seven grandchildren; and five great-grandchildren.
