She attended church at New Liberty Baptist Church in Mize. She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother, daughter, sister, sister-in-law, aunt, cousin, and friend. She was known as a hardworking woman and was even known to throw an egg or two. She cared more about taking care of others than she did herself. She dedicated her life to serving her family and was a loving and devoted grandmother and great grandmother to her grandchildren. She loved her church family and friends. She enjoyed tagging along with "Evel Knienel," her daughter, while they took her son to his therapy visits. She also enjoyed trips with her sister (Thelma & Louise), where they could always tear up creation in a vehicle. Most of all, she loved being surrounded by her family.
