Ave. Broken Arrow, OK with Pastor David Walcott officiating.Our Mother was the strongest person we have ever known she fought her cancer for years always treating it as just another obstacle. She taught us love, strength, compassion and forgiveness. The best thing in the world to her was her children and grandchildren and those that thought they were. Baking brought happiness to her and to all of us, she put a cup of love into to every recipe she baked. Just to see the smile on someoneâ??s face when she handed over a pie, cake or cookies was all the thanks she needed. Mom’s career choice was I think one born of necessity and a desire to destroy and rebuild. She felt just as comfortable with a hammer and drill as she did with a mixer and a bowl. She worked for Project Get Together building house’s for herself and other’s in Ada, OK, then later started her own company Quality Make Ready in Tulsa and worked as a contractor remodeling homes for Community Action Project and Tulsa Housing Authority helping others in need repair their homes.She will be missed but not forgotten and forever loved.
