While Richard was in the Army, everyone called her "Mom". She was always there to help you in whatever you needed. Once retired in Tennessee, you would always find both of them on the lake trying to catch that BIG Bass.  She loved spending time with family and cherished the times when family came to visit. She loved to cook and shined like a bright star while owning and operating a Cafe' in Bumpus Mills, TN for almost 10 years. 

Lydia will be missed greatly by all her family and friends
