She enjoyed singing and all kinds of music. She liked to travel and, in quiet times, she enjoyed reading and watching tv shows like Judge Judy, Golden Girls and Little House on the Prairie.
Those who survive include her daughter, Niki Dougherty; son, Robert Dougherty; sister, Shirley (Boyd) Poe and five grandchildren. Her parents; two brothers, Leroy Hite and Robert Hite and sister, Janet Dawson all preceded her in passing.
