In 1983 she and Colvis helped instrument the founding of the Burrville Volunteer Fire Department where she was the first female Asst.

After her daughters grew up the best part of life began.

Most grandparents don’t get the opportunity to do that as the last few years she would not what to have done without them.
As I write this my mother has been a lot of things to a lot of people, daughter, wife, mother, niece, sister, grandchild, grandmother, friend, cousin, neighbor… to me she has been a role model that allowed me to be the strong woman I am today. Love You Mom.
