Born in Cleveland Ohio in 1925, she lived through 11 decades witnessing all the changes that 100 years brought. She loved Music of any kind, but Jazz was her favorite. From Ohio to Florida (twice), Louisiana, Maryland and Georgia, she left her memory embedded on so many hearts of anyone who knew and loved her. At the Nursing Home for 2 1/2 years, she had her own loving ministry. She will be especially missed by her loving family.

Psalm 55:6

Oh that I had wings like a dove.

I would fly away and be at rest.

Behold I would wonder far away.

I would lodge in the wilderness.

I would hasten to my place of refuge

From the stormy wind and tempest.

In the twinkling of an eye

We will be changed

We will meet You in the sky Almighty

All the heavens and the earth will sing Your praise

And Your people will rejoice Almighty
