A very dedicated and serious Estep researcher for years, she did not let her poor health keep her on the sidelines.  She made sure she was updated on the latest Estep research and updates for the book.  She assisted me some on the website, offering additional information as well as support.  Her last goal was to make sure that the Thomas Estep, Sr. book would still be available to future Estep researchers.  She is dearly missed by us all.
