She worked tireless hours helping raise peanuts, wheat and cattle. She also worked many years at Campus Drug Store in Shawnee. She was a wonderful cook as well.

All of us who knew her well, knew her big passion was watching Bison Baseball. She loved cheering them on and taking them snacks a long as she could. In the last few years, she learned to cheer them on watching them on her iPad.

In lieu of flowers the family has designated Oklahoma Baptist University Baseball, 500 W. University, Shawnee, Oklahoma 74804, which was her favorite pastime, as and appropriate donation.
