LaValle was known for her outgoing spirit and love for entertaining with big home cooked meals. She was a master seamstress who kept the sewing machine on 24/7. Her favorite time to clean, rearrange or decorate her home was right after midnight while everyone was in bed. She saw after her own and did the best she could in all things.

[Proverbs 31:25-27 KJV] 25 Strength and honour [are] her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.

26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.

27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
