IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Lena
Price
September 23, 1966 – August 8, 2025
Carlena Jean "Lena" Price, 58, of Cleveland, TN, won her battle with cancer and entered the presence of her Lord and Savior on August 8, 2025.
Born on September 23, 1966, Lena was a loving wife, devoted mother, adoring grandmother, and faithful friend. She was preceded in death by her grandparents Bertha Verner and Arthur White, her parents Carl and Wilma Bearfield, and her favorite uncle, Ray White.
She is survived by her loving husband, Dennis Price; children Tasha (Adam) Day, Matt (Denise) Price, and Lindsey Price; grandchildren Kiley, Emily, Allye Day, Trenton Thomas, Annie Clabough, and Clayton Price; grandmother Betty White; sisters Cindy (Bart) Lawson and Kim (Keith) Hannah; and her special niece, Stacy (Jesse) Dalton, whom she lovingly called "her person." Lena also leaves behind a large circle of close family members and dear friends who will miss her deeply.
Lena loved God, her family, and cheering on her beloved Tennessee Vols, but nothing brought her greater joy than being "Nana" to her precious grandchildren. She poured her heart into her family, creating a legacy of love, faith, and laughter that will continue to inspire all who knew her.
Funeral services will be conducted at 11:00 a.m. on Thursday, August 14, 2025, in the chapel of Higgins Funeral Home of Benton, with Pastor Brian Whitmore, Pastor Chad Maxwell, and Pastor Jerrell Fowler officiating. Interment will follow at Cookson Creek Cemetery, with Matt Price, Adam Day, Elijah Lawson, Cody Lawson, Jesse Dalton, and David Fletcher serving as pallbearers.
Her family will receive friends from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, August 13, 2025, and one hour prior to the service on Thursday, at the funeral home.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to University of Tennessee Cancer Research at https://www.utmedicalcenter.org/cancer-research-endowment-giving.
"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith." — 2 Timothy 4:7
Her smile, her humor, and her unwavering love will be missed more than words can say.
