Funeral homes often submit obituaries as a service to the families they are assisting. However, we will be happy to accept obituaries from family members pending proper verification of the death.

Mary has one surviving son, Joe Lee Church; daughter-in-law Judy Church; one grandson, Shaun; one granddaughter, JusDean; five great-grandchildren; one sister, Ruby Eckert; one brother, James Birchfield; and many nieces and nephews.
