She loved to take trips to visit her dear sister Bettye Marie Barnard and her sister-in-law Sharon Jackson and their spouses and children. Mom loved to go to the beach and collect sea shells and work on her tan with the family. She could also be found frequently at the local shops, restaurants, malls and the neighborhood swimming pool. She loved to be outdoors in the sunshine at Starbucks when time was allowed from her busy schedule. She was an amazing sister, sister-in-law, wife, mom, mother-in-law, aunt, grandmother and most of all friend. She had such a loving, caring and giving spirit. Jesus was in her heart each and every moment of every day. His light shined bright in her. She touched the lives of those that knew her. She was such a blessing to all of us.
