Thirty years after graduating from high school and becoming a homemaker and seamstress, she went back to school and attended Wharton County Junior College where she graduated with honors with an Associates Degree in Accounting. She loved gardening and sewing. Her roses were legendary. She got her first sewing machine when she was 8 years old and sewed for everybody with or without a pattern. She made anything from wedding dresses to cheerleading costumes. Her girls fondly remember her years as a Girl Scout Leader, something she would reflect back on fondly. Others remember her for her giving spirit. She also loved to tell others how proud she and Lloyd were of having put two daughters through Texas A & M.
