She was born in Gilmer, Texas and she graduated from Gladewater High School in 1962.

She received her degree from Texas Eastern School of Nursing on September 3, 1965.

A few years ago, she joined the First United Methodist Church "Trippers" group and made some lasting memories visiting Australia and New Zealand.

She is survived by her daughter, Heather Marlatt of Crossroads, brother Robert (Emily) Carrington of Rockwall, sister Linda Carrington of Gladewater,

sister Karen (Randy) Fitzgerald of Bullard and brother Richard (Vicki) Carrington of Longview.
