Mim was born and raised in Sweet Home. She and her husband Gary made it their home when they were married in 1968. Gary and Mim recently celebrated 50 years of marriage.

Mim was a faithful member of River of Life Fellowship in Sweet Home, where she often taught Sunday School and served the church in many other ways. Her faith was deep and she was utterly assured of her salvation.

Mim was an avid reader and gardener. She loved flowers. She was a tremendous cook and loved to bake and make special meals and treats for her family and friends. Mim was a wonderful hostess and loved to serve others in that way. She enjoyed spending time at whatever activities her granddaughters were interested in, as well.
