They spent 67 years together raising children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. She worked in the home all of her life and enjoyed every minute of it. She enjoyed gardening, cooking, flowers, teaching Sunday School, and spending time with her family. Her kitchen was always open, and countless meals were prepared for anyone who dropped by. She was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend. She was a beautiful example of God's unconditional love and will be missed.

Honorary pallbearers were Dr. Debra Davis, all nurses and staff of ACCU and 4th and 5th floors at DCH, and especially the nurses and staff involved with her care at Hospice of West Alabama.

A very special thank you to Jean Marler for the loving care she provided.
