She faithfully served as the church clerk for 40 years and was an active member of the Omega City Council, where she worked tirelessly for her community. She also played a key role in shaping local tradition as the founder of the Omega Pepper Festival, a legacy that continues to bring people together year after year. She was a member of Antioch Baptist Church.
