In addition to her husband, she was predeceased by her beloved grandson, Christopher Dunmyer.

The family would like to thank the staff of AnMed ICU & 5th floor, the Hospice of the Upstate & the staff of the Downs Retirement Center in Clemson for the exceptional care given their mother. Most especially they would like to thank the wonderful ladies of Guardian Home Health for the loving, compassionate care given during the past 8 months Tammy, Mary, Rebecca, Janice, Carolyn, Debra, Brenda, & Fran. We were blessed to have you with us.
