I MET HER IN THE 80S AT CLARKS METHODIST, SHE WAS A VERY LOVELY PERSON.
Thank you for your comment. She was one of the best.
I worked with Poppy at Mercy Health Bethany and Western Oaks Medical Center. She was a hard worker and I enjoyed her friendship. Poppy and Joe are united in heaven.
She loved working there. She talked about it until the end.
Beautiful, Christian woman. Rest in peace Poppy.
Deepest sympathy to family and friends.

For years we sat behind Joe & Poppy at Church of the Servant. My husband first met Poppy at the doctor’s office she worked at, as he was a drug rep. We loved both them.
What a lovely, gracious friend God blessed me (and many others) with. Conversations during our blanket-knotting sessions at Touchmark were memorable to say the least. I’ll always carry Poppy close in my heart and spirit.
Poppy we didn’t know each other very well, but you brought me Jayna and Trey. Thank You for raising amazing humans. May you have been blessed with your reunification with Joe. God Bless.
We loved my Great-aunt Poppy! She had a great sense of humor! We’ll miss her, but I know she’s up there with Uncle Joe, listening to him telling his stories! Xo, Tay, Scott and Will
Thank you so much for your comment about our mom. She will be missed
Poppy is a sweet, precious friend who will be greatly missed. Very faithful to her family and friends, she always put others first. Poppy had a wonderful sense of humor and an infectious laugh. Her faith in her Lord was steadfast. She was the heart of the Seeker Women’s group.
Carolyn,
Thank you for your kind words. She loved all you guys and had many memories until the very end.
