She was married to her loving husband Billy, "Goose" for 60 years. She enjoyed cooking the most delicious meals for her family, and keeping her yard meticulously manicured. In earlier years she was an avid reader. She loved her church family and was an active member of Pine Level First United Methodist Church. Most of all she loved her children and grandchildren.

We will miss her strong will, loving spirit and spunky nature, that were present all of her 87 years.
