Former Shelby County Educator Pinkie Atkinson Celebrating 100th Birthday

April 24, 2019 - All birthdays are good, but this one is great, so come and join us as we celebrate!

The family of Mrs. Pinkie Atkinson cordially invites everyone to join us in a grand celebration in honor of her 100th birthday. The celebration will take place Saturday, April 27, 2019 from 1-4 p.m. at the Strong Triumph Church Fellowship Hall.

Mrs. Pinkie is a former Shelby County educator who retired after over 40 years in education as well as a pillar in the community. Her most famous and well remembered accomplishment came in 1968 when she coached the East Liberty Tigers all the way to the PVIL (now a part of UIL) state championship, but there are so many other accomplishments that she's known for.
