In addition to being a devoted homemaker, she was a talented seamstress who took great pride in her work. She was a member of both First Baptist Church of Doerun and Grace Baptist Church, where she willingly served in many roles throughout the years. Her Christian faith was an important part of her daily life. She faithfully read her Bible and spent time each day in devotion, drawing strength and comfort from God’s Word.

She found great joy in the simple blessings of life, especially reading, tending to her flowers, and spending precious time with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. An avid reader throughout her life, she had a deep appreciation for books and was a devoted supporter of the Doerun Library.

Above all, she treasured her family. The time she shared with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren brought her tremendous happiness, and the love, faith, and values she demonstrated throughout her life will remain a lasting legacy for the generations she leaves behind.

Cobb Funeral Chapel has been entrusted with arrangements.
