Biography

Note: Birth date listed above as 03 Nov 1931 by previous editor. My family records say 04 Nov 1931 (all else matches). The obit below states she died on Thursday, but the 4th was a Wednesday in 1931, and original date listed (03 Nov) was a Tuesday, so she may have died on 05 Nov or the Thursday prior. https://www.dayoftheweek.org/?m=November&d=4&y=1931&go=Go
