      Theda worked for Dr. W. H. 'Pete' Piper in Wartburg and went on to attend ETSU and graduated with an associate degree in Dental Hygiene in 1971 and completed her career in Johnson City. She retired and moved to Knoxville where she remained until her death.
      The family wants to thank the faculty at Heritage Assisted Living in Knoxville for their help over the years and making Mom's life as comfortable as possible. Her love of singing and her humor, strength of character, wisdom and faith will be missed by all who knew her.

      Instead of flowers, the family requests a donation in her name be made to Arkansas Ovarian Cancer Coalition, P. O. Box 7796, Little Rock, AR 72217 or Alzheimer's charities.
      Schubert Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements.
