Her hobbies included camping, sewing, ping pong, basketball and mini bike off roading, she also held several records for longest phone conversations by any one person and was well known for being fashionably late (she will be missed). Our mom was devoted to her family. She was the most caring, loving and gentle soul anyone could be blessed with in their life. She always was there for you and cared for you. She was a beautiful woman, a lady, a devoted Christian and a friend to many hurting hearts, people she didn’t even know, someone who needed prayer. Mom you will be missed, but we are confident you are at peace with God and we will see you again. What a day of rejoicing that will be!
