She took care of many people and touched many more hearts through her life as a nurse for 30+ years.
Her stead fast friendship, Christian values, love of family as well as her sense of humor will forever endure in our hearts.
She is survived by her husband, Donald Richards; 2 children, Mark Lynn Richards, and Becky Ann Tolbert; 3 siblings, Ronnie Turner, Dean Turner, and Connie Turner; 3 grandchildren Ashley Rohr, Kirsten Lowery, Madison Tolbert ; 2 great grandchildren Lydia and Saffron Rohr.
