Growing up with her father being in the military, she traveled to many places with her family, finally settling in Uriah, AL., where she attended school at J.U. Blacksher.  Later, she would attend Lurleen B. Wallace Community College in Andalusia, AL.

She held many jobs through the years, but her favorite was when she started in road and bridge construction, where she worked her way up from entry level to a first class truck and tractor driver.  During this time, is when she met her husband, Billy, and together they settled in West Virginia for many years before returning to her hometown of Atmore, AL., where she spent her remaining years.

She enjoyed doing puzzles with her husband, cooking, baking, and reading, but sewing was her favorite.

Special thanks to the ladies of Southern Care Hospice for their amazing compassion and love that they have shown to our family during this difficult time.

No arrangements are given at this time.

Johnson-Quimby Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements.
