Eunice Laverne Nowlin was born on February 2, 1950, in Nashville, Tennessee, to the union of Ewing Johnson and Cloetelle Cortner. After living a life filled with love and service, Eunice passed away peacefully on Saturday, January 18, 2025, at Centennial Hospital.
Eunice was a faithful member of Christ Shallow Missionary Baptist Church, where she was dedicated to her faith and service to others. She was educated in the Nashville Davidson County Schools and graduated from Cameron High School. Eunice went on to further her education at Hubbard Hospital, where she earned her skilled nurse certification, a career she was deeply passionate about.
Eunice was married to the late Robert T. Nowlin for 40 years before his passing. In her earlier years, she was the proud owner of four Victory 2.0 L.B.S.S Thrift Stores in the East Nashville area. Every Friday evening, Eunice would host Jubilee Night, a special event where she welcomed the homeless, providing them with food, fellowship, and compassion. Her ministry, Victory 2.0, was rooted in the belief that we are all loving brothers and sisters in spirit.
Beyond her work, Eunice cherished time spent with her family, often hosting gatherings and events at her home. She also found joy in contributing to her church's ministry, where she made a lasting impact on those who knew her.
