On Sundays Thomas and Parthena could be found worshiping at Full Gospel Tabernacle in Claypool, where both were members. Parthena was the cornerstone of her family and loved everyone dearly. She was their go to person and prayer warrior when needed.

For most of Parthena’s life, she worked tirelessly as a CNA around the Warsaw and Wabash areas, loving the patients she cared for over the years.
