She accepted Christ as her Saviour by the influence of the George R. Brunk revival meetings and passionately lived her life in service to her creator.

She and Dad had a heart for missions and traveled to different countries to support them.

One of her top priorities was interpersonal relationships with her children, grandchildren, neighbors, relatives, and friends far and near. She loved making phone calls, sending cards, and always ready to make good friends.

We treasure the memories of her love of music, being a prayer warrior, and living life to the fullest.
