Her and her husband Lynn have property in Flordia and enjoy going down there for fishing and the beach. Having been raised around the water she really misses it. Their little haven in Flordia has a touch of Saxis and they think that's as close as they are going to get. Her husband is not thrilled with the cold winters on the Eastern Shore. |

Other important things in her life included daily quiet times with her Savior, annual trips to her hometown of Saxis, VA, attending the activities of her grandchildren, involvement in her church, and being a servant to all. The legacy that she leaves to her family and all those that knew her is one of faith, family, friends, fun (as most were acquainted with her laugh), servanthood, and most importantly that Jesus is the answer for all people and all situations - one of her favorite scriptures was Jeremiah 29:11.
