"Surviving are three children: Ken Ashley, Pittsburgh, PA, and Alex Vogel and Heidi Vogel, both Celina; a brother, Larry, Rathdrum, ID; six sisters: Irene Alsobrook, Oklahoma City, Betty Spaulding, Lima, Pat York, Franklinton, NC, Eunice Coldiron, Celina, Theresa Klosterman, St. Marys, Linda Lane, Lerona, WV; and three grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
"Deceased are two brothers: Frank and Don; and two sisters: Geneva 'Ege' Beeman and Edith 'Babe' Phillips.
"Her incredible stories of growing up "poor" in the coal mining hollers of West Virginia, were never tales of desperation, but of family, love, adventure and hope. She loved to travel. Her favorite destinations were Florida to hunt for seashells, Vegas to play poker and Italy to walk the cobbled streets and admire the many fountains. She also enjoyed playing poker, especially Texas Hold'em. Whether it was in Vegas, at the Beau Rivage in Biloxi or Greektown in Detroit, you could find her enjoying good conversation with friends, dealers and strangers, while raking in large pots.
"Following a graveside service for family, she will be interred with her Wolfie at Elm Grove Cemetery, St. Marys."
