Mrs. Annie Virginia Slaughter “Honeymeat”, the daughter of the late Jennie V. Newton and Bobb Robinson, was born November 6, 1940, in West Point, Georgia. On July 18, 2025, God sent his Angels to bring her home.

Annie accepted Jesus Christ as her personal savior at a young age and was a member of Bethlehem Baptist Church in West Point, Georgia. She later united with The Word Church in West Point, Georgia. Annie loved the Lord and always acknowledged God in all her ways.

She received her education in the West Point public school system.

Honeymeat came from a large and caring family. She was the baby girl of nine siblings. She was a Strong Independent Woman that was known to stand her ground. Honeymeat met her husband, Jack Slaughter, at the age of 17 and married him at the age of 21. She loved Jack with all her heart unconditionally until he passed in 1985. She was blessed with seven children along this journey; two of them passed away as toddlers.

Honeymeat was the sole provider for the family and a caregiver not only for her children, but grandchildren and great-grandchildren. SweetMeat was well known for her ability to make $1 out of 15 cents. She didn’t play about her coins.

Honeymeat spent her life dancing until her final days. She enjoyed cooking and caring for her brothers. She was well known for the love she showed to the people she encountered along her life journey. SweetMeat will be truly missed.

She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother who was always caring, loving, and willing to go the extra mile to help her family and friends. She never met a stranger and enjoyed gambling as her hobby...

She was preceded in death by her husband, Eugene Jack Slaughter; daughters, Gloria Jean Slaughter, Negene Slaughter, Annie L. Floyd, and Brenda Ann Hodo; grandson, Tamarcko Hall; parents, Jennie V. Newton and Bobb Robinson; sisters, Lula B. McLemore “Knot” and Christine Wilson; brother, Robert L. Newton; cousins, Floretta Palmer-Billingslea, Dorothy Gilliam, and Ethel Mae Revels; and life-time special friends, Eddie Lewis Phillips, Estella Hollis, and Emma Brooks.

She leaves to cherish her memory: three sons, James Brown, Jr., Michael (Julia) Slaughter, and Bruce (Clarissa) Slaughter; 12 grandchildren, Harold Slaughter, Michael Slaughter Jr., Eric Floyd, Chazarah Brown, Fresheta Slaughter, Tywana Davidson, Keomesha (Timothy) Brooks, Alexis Murphy, Katasha Johnson, Yolanda Williams, and Paislee Slaughter; one bonus grandson, Tristen Moore; 27 great grandchildren, including those she helped raise as her own, Marcus Williams, Jamichael Williams, and Trakeria Slaughter; 27 great-great grandchildren; three brothers; Homer L.
