She was so humble but had so much wisdom and all who knew her benefitted from it. She was the first to offer a helping hand to anyone who needed one and was admired by friends and family for her kind and compassionate spirit. Grandma applied this patience, humility, and compassion to any work in front of her. We have memories of her at the stove and at the sink, at the bedsides of the sick, working at the store, or running errands - always doing what had to be done with a smile on her face. Grandma had many challenges and difficulties in her life, much sadness and hardship to endure, yet by the grace of God, she was a role model for all who were able to witness her gentle, kind, generous, and loving spirit.Visitation will be at Liley Funeral Home in Marble Hill from 4-8 on Thursday. Fr. Michael Casteel will be the celebrant at the funeral at 10am on Friday at St. John Catholic Church in Leopold with burial in the church cemetery.
