She retired as a head cook for the Los Angles School District. She was a devoted member of Shiloh Baptist Church in Los Angles, California for over forty years and a member of Second Baptist Church in Boulder, Colorado. She loved the Lord and was a perfect example of Christian love, compassion and devotion. She was loved by everyone! No one in her family or circle of friends can recall a time when she ever raised her voice, spoke out in anger, was judgmental or was unforgiving of any trespass against her. She truly loved unconditional. She spent countless hours writing Christmas cards, birthday cards and just little notes to let people know how much she loved and appreciated them. She asked for very little life, but gave way more than any of us truly deserved.
