She was preceded in death by her father; her maternal grandparents; and paternal grandparents.

She was born and raised in the Lebanon area, and graduated from Lebanon High School in the Class of 1980. She loved spending time with her Glendenning grandparents and having fun times at Bennett Spring. After she and Ronald were married, they made their home in Lebanon, and lovingly raised their children. Throughout the years, Misty was a devoted homemaker to her husband and family.
Misty had established her own personal relationship with her Lord and Savior.
She enjoyed swimming, dancing, listening to music, and taking float trips in her spare time. She particularly liked spending time at Bennett Spring. She was a loving and generous person that possessed a delightful sense of humor. Her family was very important to her and she greatly enjoyed spending time with her daughters.
