October 10, 1932 - June 30, 2023
Amelia Lucille George Kidd passed from this physical life on June 30, 2023.
Amelia was born October 10, 1932 in San Antonio, Texas to William Henry George & Echo Wilhelmina Ervin George. She had one sister, Sonia Ruth Collins (son, Michael). She was married to Tommy Kidd, Sr. on November 11, 1949 and graduated from Harlandale High School the following spring. As an Air Force wife, she traveled around the world, from Japan to Scotland and all over Europe. She said coming from her poor background, she couldn't believe she was able to see so much of the world. She loved flower gardening and in her later years reading and crossword puzzles, but her grandchildren brought her the most joy.
She was a devoted "Mom" to her son, Tommy Kidd, Jr. (wife, Karen); daughters, Judy Stroh Proctor (husband, Jim) and Melanie Kidd. She was a beloved "Nanny" to her grandchildren, Tommy Kidd III (wife, Karmin); Katie Gann (husband, Scott), Zachary Kidd, Luke Stroh (fiance, Madeline), Nick Stroh, Sam Stroh (Maci), Attacus Henson (wife, Elaine), Bailey Gann, Havilah Kidd, Avery and Jace Henson. She was also a loving "Aunt Amelia" to her many nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her loving parents, her husband and son-in-law, Fred Stroh
Visitation will be Monday, July 3, at 9:00 a.m. and funeral services at 10:00 a.m. at Roller-Owens Funeral Home with burial following at Huie Cemetery in Clinton, beside Tommy.
The family would like to thank the staff of St. Vincent North and Arkansas Hospice for their support and loving care her last ten days.

I will never forget the love and acceptance you gave me. I came to you, Melanie, and Zach when I was 16, troubled, abused, and alone. You gave me love, guidance and family. I wish you could have seen my daughter's birth, or my wedding before you passed, but she will know who you were, and what you meant to me. I hope i will become the man you always knew i could be. I love you Nanny, and I miss you every day.

To the family of Mrs. Kidd,
I loved both your parents so much growing up! So loving, so accepting, and so forgiving. We all can be comforted by knowing Amelia knew God and her Messiah. She was as close to being an angel a human can be! Praying for you all â¤ï¸

Very sad to read of your Mom's passing. Sharing mutual familyakes the entire Kidd family seem as if they are also family in addendum to our church family. You are all in our thoughts at this sad time.

Amelia was a wonderful example of a Christian woman, and a good friend. We enjoyed many experiences together with her and Tommy at Somers Avenue. She loved her family and her church family. It was a joy to have known her for so many years. Our prayers for her family at this sad time.
