A native of Picayune, Miss., she was a retired Bank Vice President for Bank Plus and a member of New Palestine Baptist Church. Up until the very end, she was a hard worker and the most loving person you ever could meet. She never forgot anyone at Christmas. She bought presents for everyone of her family members and stayed in contact with each of them faithfully. Most of all, she was truly a Godly woman whose greatest joy was sharing her love of her Lord and Savior in hopes they would give their life to the Lord and know the happiness she experienced on a daily basis in her life.
