She leaves behind her daughter Pat Peloquin and her husband James Cowart, who
cared tirelessly for her during the last 15 years of her life. She is also survived

There will be a small private memorial for her in the East Texas Piney Woods and

the ashes of her mother, Thelma Church who lived with her and also loved it there.
She was a wonderful person, they were a great comfort to one another. This was home.
This is a picture of them when they were very young.
