“Put God first” was the motto of her life. She was a playful, witty, adventurous, loving wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, niece and friend. Her home and table were a safe haven and always open to all to share food, laughter and a huge serving of hospitality and love. Her Saturday breakfasts and Sunday lunches were enjoyed by hundreds over the years. She loved to attend worship, sing, cook, garden, ride her 4-wheeler and welcome friends and family to her home.
She was a lifelong member of Chances Cross Roads Church of Christ.
