She was known for her traditional cooking and was called upon often to prepare sofke and grape dumplings. Active pallbearers will be Michael Bowers, E.J. Birdcreek, Bryan Birdcreek, Wesley Randall, Leroy Harjo, Ray Jimboy, Eric Harjo and Aries Armstrong. Services will be under the direction of Parks Brothers Funeral Home and officiated by Rev.
