She was a proud member of the Georgia School Lunch team.
Mom enjoyed her friends and had many adventures including going to church, eating food, NASCAR, and playing cards being among her favorite things to do.
Mom was predeceased by both her parents, her grandson, Christopher Laframboise, her brother, Terrance and her stepmothe, Beatrice Fleming.
