She attended and was an avid volunteer for McKinley Church. Her friends and family can attest to the many hours that she helped in making sure we all enjoyed the apple butter and pumpkin rolls. She always expressed great pride and love for her bowling and the bowling family she enjoyed since the late 60's. Two of her greatest accomplishments were finishing 2nd in the State WV bowling tournament and finishing 2nd with her love Gary in the Holiday mixed doubles tournament. Some of her favorite memories are of her travels with friends and family from cruises to casinos but her favorite was her beach vacations with family. She loved life to the fullest. She touched all those around her and made sure everyone felt welcomed and loved. The service will be a small private family service which will be handled by Hall Funeral Home and Crematory, Proctorville, OH. Masks and Social Distancing will be required. The service will be live streamed through the funeral home website for those that wish to attend. Condolences may be expressed to the family at [email protected].
