She worked for the State for many years. She was a member of First Christian Church and volunteered at the food pantry. They enjoyed spending time with friends and family. They went to the lake and camping as often as they could. She loved to read, even into her 90s.
The family gives a special thanks to Suzette Handwork and the wonderful caregivers at Southern Charm Senior Living in Benton. When times got hard, Suzette was always there with advice and support for the family and they took care of all mom's needs one on one.
