She cooked for the Missions Conference, working in VBS, singing in the choir and hosting many missionaries, preachers and Yukie Fujii in her home. Sewing was a passion of hers where she took many trips to the deer lease with her niece Mary Flowers. Shopping was a favorite pastime, no it was an obsession especially at Christmas. She was a secretary at Puckett Electric for many years. Most of all she loved her husband, kids, grandchildren and great grandchildren and would do anything for them. She will be greatly missed.
