She lived a life of many health issues and losses but through all that she remained positive and head strong to over come anything thrown her way. She loved to bowl, her dogs, she crocheted, she loved going to church and she loved winning at Bingo and Yatzee! When she prayed she had a direct line to God. She made many special friends at Harbor Healthcare in Ironton which is where resided the last 5 years. Connie Morrison and Bessie were her best friends and the special caregivers there adored her spunk, humor and always dressing up every day everything matching and her love of jewelry.

She is survived by many nieces and nephews who remember her big laugh and bright smile; many friends, as she never met a stranger because to know her was to love her; a very special Daughter that God placed later in her life 25 years ago, who loved and adored her, giving her a whole other extended family, Wendy (Paul) Short of Proctorville; and two grandsons that she spoiled every chance she got, Chance and Gunner Short. She attended church service at the nursing home where they sang her favorite song every time "I'll Fly away" and a Member of the Itty Bitty committee of McDonalds in Proctorville.
