There was always a place for Jamie in the office or at a counter. She inspired and pushed her daughter to pursue college and career with strong work ethic and dedication.

It was a sight to behold Billie on a Yamaha scooter with a cane, easily keeping pace with the Honda Valkyrie and Harleys in the group. She also loved camping and boating with family and friends. Sherrell cookouts at the lake were the place to be! She wrote poetry and loved to paint, sharing her faith in God through art.
