Both of them enjoyed gardening and sharing the bountiful produce and flowers with family, friends, and their special core of neighbors who were like family to them.

She will be dearly missed by her daughter, Karen (Jack) Soper, Liberty; grandson, Scott (Ann) Soper, Harlem, Georgia; and many nieces and nephews. She was blessed to have four special caregivers during the last year of her life, whom she called "the girls."
Her husband, Charles, preceded her in death in August of 1992.
