Momma is gone, she has slipped the surly bonds of earth, shrugged off the mortal coil.
No more blah blah blah taxes, blah blah blah plumbing issues.
Momma was one part Love, Laughter, and Kindness, and one part “Let me show you where you can stick it.” She suffered a stroke about a week ago, due largely to the cigarettes she loved to smoke. You raise an eyebrow to a 74 year-old woman smoking? She would have been happy to show you where you could stick that. Diet? Exercise? She would have shown you where to stick those, too. Get the picture?
Momma was an artist to the core. She loved to create anything pretty, in any form or fashion. She used to tell her husband, “Don’t worry about it, I’m in charge of pretty.” If you are reading this, there is a good chance you or someone you know has something she painted. She loved flowers and spent countless hours growing them. She could work all day making a beautiful mosaic in the bathroom floor of a trailer, spend hours painting an intricate design on a styrofoam cooler, but would not spend five minutes on a W2 unless there was a gun pointed at her head. She couldn’t care less about money, and had no interest in chasing it. Her love for her family was endless and fierce, her temper ran white hot, and she carried a Saturday Night Special (Illegal! Around children?!) in her pocket book. Aghast? See the paragraph above.
She is going to join her Mom and Dad. If there is one thing that brings a smile to our face, it is the image of Momma seeing Atwood & Judy and sitting down at the kitchen table to have a cup of Granma’s instant coffee.
She is survived by her big brothers, Randy (Jenny) and Elwynn (JoAnne) and many cousins, nieces, and nephews.
Momma leaves behind five grandchildren, Angelina, Susanna, Cady Mae, Case, and Christina. They were the love of her life. Her world revolved around them, whether it was going to their dance recitals, teaching them to paint, or making them cinnamon toast.
She leaves behind seven children – Shane & Holly, Woody & Michelle, Jacqueline & Jimmy, and Kyle. Yes, seven. The wives and husband are listed. They treated her as well as any mother could be treated, and her brood is no longer complete without them. Jacqueline and Woody fought and clawed for the title of favorite, but everyone knew that title went to Shane or Kyle, who seemed totally indifferent to it. There is a lot there for Woody and Jacq to unpack, so give them time.
If the criteria for successful mother is number of offspring, Momma is far down on the list, although four is respectable. If it is successful children, sorry, not a doctor or lawyer in the lot. But if the measure of a successful mother is how much her children love her, then Momma takes the prize. They simply adored her.
Finally, she leaves behind Pete, her husband of 56 years. You probably call him Jack. Partners in crime, enablers, disablers, travel buddies, enemies, champions, best friends, and perfect companions. Ying and Yang. We hope everyone who reads this finds their perfect companion and is able to build the life these two had.
The family would like to thank the wonderful caregivers with Agape Hospice.
A private service will be held by her family. In lieu of flowers, please donate to an animal rescue of your choice. Online condolences may be sent to the family on the obituary page at www.williamsburgfuneralhome.com.
