She worked for several years in the Medical Transportation Program at the TX Dept. of Human Services. Her last job before retirement was in Children’s Protective Services.

Vee was a wonderful cook, and had a reputation for baking delicious bread, cakes and cookies. She enjoyed crochet, reading and listening to music. She was known to be a loving, outgoing, generous, unselfish person who seemed to be always helping others. She maintained her cheerful personality even in later life when suffering from debilitating illnesses. She lived her life in accordance with this quote (found taped to her kitchen cabinet) from Methodist cleric John Wesley: “Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as ever you can.”

A memorial service will be held at St. Mark’s United Methodist Church, 600 Pecore St., Houston TX 77009, on Saturday June 8, 2019 at 2:00 pm.
