As a young child, Eula’s family moved from Marshfield to Camdenton riding in a covered wagon and sleeping in a tent as a home when they first arrived. She remained in the area for the rest of her life. Early in life, she worked as a housekeeper and later worked for Blair Cedar where she retired from working as a stamper and packer.
Eula made a profession of faith in Christ and was a member of the First Assembly of God Church in Camdenton for more than 55 years. She loved her church and was one of three Church Mother’s. She was also active in the women’s ministry group.
In her spare time she enjoyed miniature golf, having played up until she was 88 years old. She enjoyed gathering with family and friends and playing the board game “Sorry”. She was fortunate to travel to various locations with her daughter and son-in-law. Most of all, she enjoyed time spent with her family, especially her grandchildren.
Eula was a loving mother, grandmother, sister and aunt and a caring neighbor and friend. We celebrate her life and her accomplishments and will treasure the memories she created for her family and friends.
