Eunice retired from the Federal Government in 1997 after 20+ years of service.  Eunice loved working with her orchids and plants in general.  She was a member of the Englewood Shell Club where early on she loved to go on the shelling adventures and most recently spending time with the friends she cherished thru the years. She was very talented and created beautiful pieces of art with the shells she found. She also loved to bead and created beautiful pieces that she loved to give to friends and family. Recently she kept busy crocheting baby blankets for her great-grandbabies, cross stitching, and could be found relaxing on her lanai listening to audio books with her grand-dog Bella.

 

From early childhood Eunice had a strong faith. She was a member of Englewood United Methodist Church where she loved to serve.  Even when age kept her from attending she faithfully watched the service online every Sunday and volunteered with the card ministry from home. Eunice’s greatest joy was her family!
