Alma Ruth Binkley (Cantrell), age 85, died peacefully on August 21st, 2017 at Savannah Court and Cottages in Oviedo, FL.

Alma married Carl Douglas Binkley (deceased), survived by her children and their spouses Betty and Al Boatman, Doug Binkley, Patsy and Joe Johnson, Charles and Angela Binkley, Sarah Travelute, Cynthia Binkley and Janis Painter; Leonard and Gina Binkley; and Pam and Shahab Danesh. Alma had two other children who are deceased Donald Lee Felts (Binkley) and Billy Binkley. Alma is survived by 16 grandchildren and 17 great grandchildren.

Alma was born on March 14 in 1932, to parents Archibald Horace and Euna Frances Cantrell (Young) in Smithville, TN. Alma had 15 siblings and is survived by Elzie, Denton, Ethel, and Billy.

After the death of her husband, Alma moved to Orlando, FL where she was a successful restaurateur and business woman in the Orlando area for many years.

Growing up on a farm in Tennessee with so many siblings made Alma tough and she learned the meaning of hard work, ethical conduct, honor and respect for everyone. Most importantly, these characteristics were instilled in her children and this is the legacy she leaves behind. Life was not easy for Alma’s family, but they always had hope and love for family. There was never a dull moment in the Binkley house. Alma made huge Sunday breakfasts, ice-cream cakes for birthdays, and don’t forget the famous salsa that so many central Floridians loved. Alma was a loving daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother, and Christian woman. Alma was loved by her family and she will be missed.

A celebration of life funeral is scheduled for Alma Ruth Binkley on Friday September 1, 2017 at 6pm with visitation before from 4pm to 6pm, at Newcomer Funeral Home located at 895 S. Goldenrod Rd., Orlando, FL. A private family reception will follow. All are welcome to attend the celebration of life funeral. The family would like to thank Savannah Court and Cottages in Oviedo for their exceptional care during Alma’s last days. In lieu of Flowers, please consider donating your money to the non-profit organization of Second Harvest Food Bank of Central Florida located at 411 Mercy Dr., Orlando, FL 32805, phone: 407-295-1066.
