The family moved often making home in various cities and states until finally settling in the Springdale, Arkansas area in 1958.
Our mother was the epitome of femininity and grace, handling life's many challenges with incredible strength and dignity. Though she worked hard raising and supporting her children, she loved her roll as homemaker and the quality time spent with her beloved children. Her beautiful smile and soft gentle voice always sent a clear message that all was well even in the toughest of times. In later years she enjoyed reading Louis Lamour novels and traveling. She always involved family and relatives and brought happiness to others.
The absence of Mama from our lives will be indescribable. But, we thank God for her and we know we have been loved by the very best.
