She is survived by three children, Sherry (Donnie) Jewett, Marshall Vann Crenshaw Jr, Joyce Hoffman, grandchildren, Ashley and Michael Jewett, Philip and Aaron Hoffman, great grandchild Sean Jewett, and many special nieces, nephews, and other extended family. A special thanks of gratitude to nieces Linda Simpson and Brenda White for the years of love, support, and caregiving.
