She was a devoted military wife and mother and lived in Bermuda, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, Phoenix, Arizona, Rockingham, Camden, South Carolina, and Weddington.
She loved her family and had a daily phone call routine to make sure everyone was well and behaving appropriately. She enjoyed reading on her Kindle Fire and was an excellent embroiderer. She was a dedicated Atlanta Braves fan and supported the Carolina Panthers. She never missed America’s Got Talent.
