Nola grew up in the depression on a small dairy farm in Dora. She would say everyday how thankful she was for her heritage, that her father and mother taught her to work hard and how to manage money. She would state, “We were poor, but never knew it, as we had everything we needed.”

She worked at various department stores in Carlsbad but was best known for her many years of service with J.C. Penney’s, where she retired.
Nola spent many hours volunteering. She worked as a Pink Lady, she delivered meals, and worked at the CARC Farm Bargain house.
Nola was a member of Blodgett Street Baptist Church. Her hobbies were traveling and square dancing until she was unable, playing cards and dominoes and she loved visiting with family and friends.
