She was preceded in death by her mother.

She was the epitome of the virtuous woman; a hardworking, dedicated, and loving wife and mother who always put the needs of others before her own. Her smile and magnetic

personality brought joy to everyone she met. During her many years as a server at Perkins and Bob Evans restaurants in Springfield she touched the lives of numerous co-workers and customers. Her kind words and gentle, fun-loving spirit will be greatly missed by all who knew her. A memorial service

celebrating her life will be held on Tuesday, August 24th, 2021, at 6 p.m. at Northside Baptist Church, 2425 Derr Rd., Springfield. The family will receive friends one hour prior to the service at the church. Online expression of sympathy may be made at www.littletonandrue.com.
