Barbara鈥檚 zest for life was evident early on at Winyah High School (class of 1952) in Georgetown. Whether she was cheering on the sidelines, competing on the basketball court, or participating in numerous clubs, she was always at the center of the action. She was honored as “Ms. Pocahontas” and, in a testament to her infectious charm and bright spirit, was voted Senior Superlative “Most Flirtatious”鈥攁 title she carried with a wink for the rest of her life.

A proud 1956 graduate of Coker College, Barbara鈥檚 collegiate years were defined by leadership and athleticism. She served as Freshman Commissioner and Representative, Secretary-Treasurer of her Junior Class, and ultimately, President of the Senior Class. Her peers recognized her excellence by electing her to the Student Council, Athletic Council, and “Who鈥檚 Who Among Students.”

Her beauty and grace earned her a spot on the Beauty Court and in the May Day Dances, while her intellect and creativity led her to the Biology, French, and Drama Clubs, as well as the Alpha Psi Omega honor society. She was a true Renaissance woman, participating in the Modern Dance Club, serving as a Chapel Proctor, and competing in everything from tennis and crew to volleyball, hockey, and basketball. On the court, she was a standout member of the “Honor Team.” At the time, the mascot was the “Coconuts,” and players were restricted to playing either offense or defense. Barbara excelled as a defensive specialist. She would likely tell you that today鈥檚 players could learn a thing or two from her era, given that “no one plays defense anymore!” That defensive instinct served her well later in life.

Barbara was a dedicated educator. She began her teaching career at North Charleston High School and later taught at Greeleyville Elementary, Manning Christian Academy, and Laurence Manning Academy, the latter of which she helped found.

She was a pillar of the South Carolina community, serving on the parole board for the Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) and acting as a formidable force in the South Carolina Republican Party. When she made a bid for a SC House seat, she did so with the goal of bringing a “down-home,” common-sense approach to the Capital City. A lifelong member of the Methodist Church in both Greeleyville and Georgetown, Barbara鈥檚 faith was her cornerstone.

Barbara was preceded in death by the love of her life, Thomas Neil Mishoe of Greeleyville; her mother, Ruth Ward Baker; her father, Eugene R. Ward; her brother, Roger Ward; her nephew, Brad Freeman; and other beloved family members who welcomed her home.

She is survived by her children and their families: Carolyn Mishoe-Coon and her husband, Bill, and their children, Matthew and Megan Coon; Tommy Mishoe and his wife, Angie, and their children, Marshall and Jordan Mishoe; and Martie Kennedy and her children, Eric, Anne, and Lee Kennedy, along with her great-grandchildren. She is also survived by her sister, Edna Freeman and her husband, Al, and her sister-in-law, Becky Ward. She cherished her nieces, nephews, and their families: Bobby Jonte; Marge Mahoney; Virginia Jonte; Allen Freeman; Robin Kirtley; Lori Bellune; Toni Bunting; Kelli Ward; and Jessica Moultrie. Also surviving are family members Johnny Mishoe, his wife Sandra, and Leonard Mishoe, as well as special family members Darrell Turner and his wife, Vassar, and their children, Faye and Allie, and a longtime family friend, Mr. Louis Reid.

A graveside service will be held at 3 p.m. on Monday, May 18, 2026, in Mt. Hope Cemetery with the Rev. Jay Wilder officiating.

The family will receive friends from 1 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Monday, May 18, 2026, at Stephens Funeral Home.

Pallbearers will be Gerald Widler, Jay Wilder, Matt Wilder, Bobby Jonte, John Mishoe, and Darrell Turner.

Honorary pallbearers will be Johnny Mishoe, Leonard Mishoe, Louis Reid, and Charlie Hinds.

On Wednesday, Aug. 20, 2025, Cornelia Shepherd Porter Wallace, or Shep, as everyone who loved her knew her, passed peacefully from this world at FirstHealth Hospice House, in Pinehurst.

The youngest child of John and Mary Porter, she was born on Sept. 28, 1934, in Rockingham. She lived in Rockingham for the entirety of her childhood, and graduated from Rockingham High School in 1952. Following this, she attended 黑料网 in Hartsville, S.C., graduating with a B.A. in education in 1956. She taught elementary and middle school in Oxford and Rockingham for several years.

In 1965, she married the love of her life, Mitchell Warren Wallace, DDS, who had also grown up in Rockingham, but was living in Fayetteville, and practicing in Spring Lake. After marrying, Mitchell and Shep built a life in Fayetteville, raising their two daughters, Cornelia and Mary Lillie, there. She was a member of Snyder Memorial Baptist Church, the Col. Robert Rowan Chapter of the DAR, the North Carolina Dental Auxiliary, and the Fayetteville Junior League.

Shep was preceded in death by her parents, John W. Porter and Mary Benton Porter, of Rockingham; her beloved husband, Mitchell Warren Wallace, of Fayetteville; her dear sister, Louisa 鈥淟ou鈥� Love Porter Presler, of Laurinburg; and her dear brother, John W 鈥淛ack鈥� Porter, of Lake Worth, Fla.

She is survived by her two daughters, Cornelia Wallace Morris (Walter), of Southern Pines, and Mary Lillie Wallace Monti (Channing), of Frederick, Md. She is also survived by her cherished grandchildren, Mary Mitchell Morris, of Atlanta, Maimie Monti Draper (Harrison), of Los Angeles, George Franklin Morris, of Dallas, and Cornelia Ann 鈥淣ealy鈥� Monti, of Baltimore. Further, Shep is survived by many nieces and nephews who deeply loved Aunt Shep, as well as numerous cherished friends.

This is just the outline of her life and, like many other obituaries, it doesn鈥檛 tell you who Shep Wallace was. Who she was is such a force that it won鈥檛 fit in the lines allotted to the dead. For example, Shep Wallace was the absolute essence of what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ. She walked each day hand-in-hand with her Lord, reading Our Daily Bread and her well-worn Bible every morning at her kitchen table on Skye Drive, and praying for all that were in her heart and on her list. Her faith was child-like and steadfast, and there is no doubt that she is now sitting at the feet of her Savior, who welcomed Shep with 鈥淲ell done, my good and faithful servant.鈥�

To her husband, she was the best surprise of his life. Mitchell met Shep when he was 36 and she was almost 30. He never thought he would marry, but when his brother, Bill, and her sister, Lou, set them up on a blind date, he knew he had met the love of his life. He quickly married her, and found in her an independent woman who would be his partner and best friend. She ran not only his house, but also the business side of his successful dental practice. She leaned on him only for his love, and lightened his already heavily burdened shoulders. He adored her, and she him, and after he died in 1994, she never looked for anyone else. Mitchell was it for her.

To her daughters, Shep was the epitome of resilience, strength and faith. She taught them to pray unceasingly, and to believe that love for the Lord and humankind would sustain them through all circumstances. She also taught them to always have their own checking accounts if they got married, and to have a car in their name because 鈥測ou never know.鈥� When the worst of times hit the Wallaces of Skye Drive, Shep showed her girls how to hold their heads up, and face whatever was coming at them with grace. Her advice on everything, from the order of mixing wet and dry ingredients when baking a cake to dealing with a recalcitrant teenage child, was impeccable and sought by Cornelia and Mary Lillie till the day she passed.

To her precious grandchildren, Shep was 鈥淢awmaw.鈥� She was the maker of the best pancakes, the organizer of trips to Tiny Town for shoes, The Disney Store for costumes, and Krispy Kreme for 鈥淗ot Nows.鈥� She was the boss of their mothers, and the encourager of their dreams. Mawmaw was their biggest fan, and they all knew it.

There are many other lovely details that could be shared here about Shep Wallace, like how she loved college sports, chocolate, books, New York City, Broadway musicals, Neil Diamond, Bergdorf Goodman, the Nordstrom Cafe, and all of God鈥檚 furry creatures. She became more liberal in her world view the older she got and believed that no matter who you were, or who you loved, or where you came from, you are worthy and should be in charge of your own life and afforded the opportunity to make that life wonderful. We were lucky to have her while we did. May we endeavor to live up to her belief in us.

In lieu of flowers, memorials can be made to the Fayetteville Family Life Center, 114 Highland Ave., Fayetteville NC, 28305 ( ).
