Lyla May was known for her talent as a seamstress making clothes for her family as well as wedding and bridesmaid dress for family and friends’ special days. Decorating cakes was another of Lyla May’s many talents- decorating wedding cakes for many in her community as well as family and friends. Her grandchildren were blessed with many amazing birthday cakes over the years. A green thumb was also something Lyla May had which could be seen in the flowers in her yard, her house plants, and her garden.
Lyla May will be remembered for her smile, her sense of humor and love of community and family.
