    She enjoyed most of all being a homemaker for her family. She loved to cook and serve others. Her favorite greetings were “Come on in and sit down. Can I get you something?” Mrs. Harper was a faithful member of Eastside Church of Christ until her health began to decline. She will be remembered for her kindness and selfless spirit.
