Whether she was serving on the Women of Faith board, teaching Sunday School, or offering a quiet prayer for a neighbor, her actions were always guided by her love for the Lord. She lived by the principle of "loving thy neighbor" and was often the first to arrive with a casserole or a kind word for someone in need.
