The family would like to thank Dr. Jerry W. Biddix of Winters and all of his staff; Dr. Charlesworth and all the staff of Shannon Clinic in San Angelo, VistaCare Hospice, their doctors and all personnel; along with all of her friends who have prayed and shown so much love. In lieu of flowers the family requests memorials be made to a charity of your choice.
