She spent most of her life cooking, sewing and caring for others, she loved making trips to Wal-Mart with friends and reading tabloids, but her favorite thing to do was making others feel welcomed. Her homemade biscuits and gravy, pancakes, and the ability to make everything taste fresh from a garden was everyone’s favorite. She loved pop-in visits for those that called her Granny, and Momma, and never let anyone leave without asking “what’s your hurry.” She will forever be missed but her legacy lives on through so many that she touched and loved.

The family wishes to thank all those people who touched the life of our mother in so many ways, God Bless each and every one of you.
