She retired in 1995 and moved to Austin where she truly enjoyed spending time with her family. Her other loves included reading her daily paper and keeping up with the news, especially politics. She was preceded in death by her son, Chris Welch, granddaughter, Sonia Beeson Seiwert, sisters Elaine McEvoy and Nancy, and brother Bobby Jones. She is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, Walter and Mary Welch, sister, Marilyn Baldwin, great-grandsons, Jim Beeson and wife Cassie, Aaron Beeson and wife Darryon, Adam Rico, six great-great grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and other relatives and friends.
