She was a member of the Calvary Baptist Church in Muleshoe and was a regular attendee until her health made the move to Runningwater Draw Care Center in Olton, Texas a necessity.

She considered them all to be her own.She was preceded in death by her parents, her husbands, her son Freddie Routon, her brothers Alvin Anderson and D. E. Anderson, and her sisters Velma Kinser and Billie Green, and her grandson Tye Wade Engelking, and her great-grandson Justin Routon.


She is survived by her daughter Louise and Jerry Engelking, Muleshoe, her daughter-in- law Juerrine Routon, Graham, her sisters, Joyce Addison, Archer City, and Jenell Smith, Olney, her grandchildren Chuck and Anne Routon, Graham, Chandra and Jr Sanchez, Muleshoe, Brittni and Clay Grant, Muleshoe, Her great-grandchildren Bethenie and John Glamm, Edmond, Oklahoma, Chase and Maggie Routon, Prairie Village, Kansas, Brianna and Hayden Schaub, Celina, Katherine Murray, Midland, Jett Black, Amarillo, Elizabeth Routon, Lubbock, Jaide Black, Maci and Aubri Ella Grant, Muleshoe, and great-great grandsons, Brayden and Bryson Glamm Edmond, Oklahoma.
