She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Loyd Tittle in 1963; son, Loyd Leon Tittle; daughter, Helen Louise Tittle; seven brothers; and three sisters.

Graveside services will be at 2 p.m. Tuesday, May 10, 2011, in Zeigler Cemetery, with the Rev. Bernadine Caldwell Webb, pastor of Full Gospel Mission Church, officiating. Soloist for the services will be Brenda Bailey (niece) of Buckner. Friends are asked to meet at the cemetery.
