Bertha would often be found in her garden doting on her flowers or picking the tomatoes before those pesky deer got to them. Her hands were never still always sewing, quilting, or embroidering on one of her projects. She was an amazing cook and a gracious hostess always up for planning a good party. She was very proud of her family and the hole left by her absence is impossible to fill.
The family expresses appreciation to the staff of the Hospice of North Central Oklahoma for enabling Bertha to be comfortable at home surround by her family and friends.
In place of flowers, the family suggests donations to First Baptist Church of Ponca City, 218 S 6th St, Ponca City, OK 74601 or Hospice of North Central Oklahoma, 445 Fairview, Ponca City, OK 74604.
