On August 31, 1973, she married the love of her life Terry Baldwin. They spent the first 10 years of their marriage making memories with friends and family including several trips to the sand dunes and 4-wheeling in the mud. In 1979 they purchased Etzel’s Service and Repair and then moved down the street and opened Silverton Road Automotive where she worked front office and always greeted everyone with a smile.
She was a devoted wife, mom and grandma. She taught preschool at Oak Park where the girls attended school. She was a member of the Beta Sigma Phi sorority for many years. She volunteered countless hours at school with the girls and met many other moms who became forever friends.
She developed a love for make-up at a very young age and would ONLY wear Mary Kay. Once the girls started college, she found herself needing a hobby, so she became a consultant for Mary Kay for the next 20 years.
She loved traveling and cruising far and wide, some of her favorite destinations were the Caribbean, New Orleans, Hawaii, Disney, camping and the beach. She also loved all things holiday, spending time with family and friends, watching her grandkids play sports, shopping, going to Saturday Market, jewelry, flowers, watching Hallmark movies, Betty Boop and Dumbo.
She loved sweets, including Oreos with bananas, Redvines, ice cream, Almond Joy, Payday, Rocky Road, Holiday Nuggets and Peanut Cake. She also loved wine, Diet Pepsi, margaritas on the rocks and Mexican food.
