She was a devout Christian and a very faithful member of her church. She and her husband, Darrell, were charter members of Connersville Baptist Temple. She was very active in the church being a Sunday school teacher, attending Lois Cornett’s Sunday school class every Sunday, and volunteering her time and resources to help with the Ladies’ Ministries. She was always willing to give of herself for the work of church and God. She was also very involved in the church she attended while wintering in Florida. She was a wonderful cook; loved her flowers and gardening.
She worked at American Kitchens; J.C. Penneys for seven years; Roots for 16 years; and then Radio Shack. She also volunteered at the Fayette Memorial Hospital for many years.

She loved her grandchildren, Megan (Rob) Hendrix, of Liberty, Darrick Fox, of Wisconsin, Clayton Schnitker, of Muncie, and Jared Schnitker, of Connersville.

She is also survived by two nieces, Julie (Mark) Stephens, of Atlanta, Georgia and Jennifer (Michel) Heimoz, of Humble, Texas. She will be greatly missed by all of her family and many friends.
