Whether it was while smuggling bibles into China, ministering in Thailand, in a restaurant, or cooking in her kitchen, the smile on her face let you know his faithfulness and love were the "real deal." You would always leave her house with a full stomach and to-go bag because she always had a hot meal for friends, family, and even strangers. Her family was everything to her and she loved to fill up her backyard and creekbank with laughter and love! She adored and praised all of her grandchildren and great grandchildren.
