She was a gifted landscape artist and the 3rd wife of Walt Disney cartoonist, Carl Barks. She had suffered from anemia and was diagnosed with lupus.

Her favorite flower was the daffodil.

FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND

One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord. Scenes from my life flashed across the sky. In each, I noticed footprints in the sand. Sometimes there were two sets of footprints; other times there was only one.

During the low periods of my life I could see only one set of footprints, so I said, "You promised me, Lord, that you would walk with me always. Why, when I have needed you most, you have not been there for me?"

The Lord replied, "The times when you have seen only one set of footprints, my child, is when I carried you."
