She grew up in Olton, Texas, where she graduated High School in May of '61. She then moved to Johnson, Kansas,where she worked as a nurse aide, EMT, and for Central Supply until she retired in '94. She then went on to graduate from Garden City College in May of '95 with a degree in nursing. Following graduation, she moved to Spearman, Texas, where she carried out her lifelong dream of serving others as a nurse. Nana found joy in gardening, making crafts, spoiling her grandkids, and mentoring other inspired nurses. Nana's light shined bright at work as she was more than an employee, she was a Woman of God, mother, friend, and shoulder to lean on. Nana worked as a nurse until her final days, and if it was up to her, she would still be ready for her next weekend shift at the Hansford Manor.
