Mrs. Artie Jean (Legan) McIntyre, 84, of Murfreesboro, Tennessee departed this life on Sunday, January 7, 2024 after a long-fought battle with Alzheimer's. She was born July 2, 1939. Preceding her in death were her husband, Kenneth "Ken" Albert McIntyre whom she married May 11, 1963, and parents, Gayle Fayette and Wanda (Spencer) Legan.

She is survived by her son, Jay Scott McIntyre and his wife, Sandra; granddaughter, Anneliese Hope McIntyre of Murfreesboro, TN; son, Bryan Keith McIntyre; granddaughter, Kayla Jean McIntyre of Bloomington, IN; and numerous friends and lives touched by her infectious smile and boundless love.
