She was a faithful servant of God, faithful to her husband and a caring and supportive Mother. Our Mother was a woman of Proverbs as she was diligent in her work at home, sewing clothes for her family and others, she always had a garden to make sure there were vegetables year round, she also worked at J.C. Penney for several years, then went on to real estate school to become a realtor. She later became the Bookkeeper for her husband at Harris Welding until they retired. She worked long hours to provide for her family while her husband was away working pipelines to provide a home for the family.
