Iris spent her childhood years in Bald Knob. As a young woman she enjoyed canning, gardening, visiting yard sales and taking care of her children, grandchildren and extended family.

In Iris’ last years she enjoyed spending time with family, vacationing with her daughters, Claris June and Jenni and reminiscing about her childhood. Iris was a member of New Harvest Church of the Nazarene and loved singing songs such as Amazing Grace, In the Garden and You Are My Sunshine . . . Iris will forever be the sunshine of our family.
