She was a member of Shiloh Terrace Baptist Church in Dallas where she has led the Single Adult Sunday School Class for 25 years. She was a sought after speaker for Christian Women's Clubs throughout the Southwest United States. She spent many weeks on mission trips to Central America. She was a loving individual who made it her lifelong goal to share the love of Jesus no matter what she was going through. She never let her suffering go to waste. She ministered to everyone she came in contact with even in her last days. With her beautiful smile and her sincere interest in others, her life was a testimony of grace and unwavering faith. She is preceded in death by her first husband, Bob Lucas; her parents, George and Cleo Watts; and her older brother, Jerry Watts.
