She departed from this job and went back to cooking at Levi Fry Middle School in Texas City where she retired.
In her retirement years she enjoyed spending time with her daughters, grandchildren and great grandchildren. She just enjoyed family.
After a while she began to start leaving us a little bit each day. As it was hard for us to bare, she continued to laugh and be mama.
