She loved and was cherished by family, friends, and all who crossed her path.  She ministered to many, through her Warm Smile, Embracing

Heart, and Genuine Faith.  She was able to lift those around her through her greatest gift, which was Prayer.  To sum up her life in one

phrase, it would be….   ” To live, is Christ, and to die, is Gain” Her life verse was Romans 8:28, and we know that God causes everything to

work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.

There will be a celebration of life at a later date.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Ozark Memorial Park Cemetery and Crematory in Joplin, Missouri.
