Imogene had three children, Glenna Jean, Gerald Dean and Billie Sue and she and Lynn raised the children together. They moved to Illinois in 1962. She worked at Alco Dispensing Systems in Carol Stream, Illinois for 17 years before retiring.
I have many fond memories of holidays and weekends spent with my aunt and uncle after they moved to Illinois. They and their 3 kids were our only family in Illinois. Our Christmas Eve's were always so special; we did the traditional name draw that had been part of my mom and uncle's family for years and we always had a great time on New Year's Eve...one time that stands out in all of us kid's minds is when my uncle danced my aunt all over the basement. And then of course the next day was Aunt Imogene's birthday; I always thought it was so cool that her birthday was on a holiday!
Imogene enjoyed bowling, sewing, knitting and crocheting. She made many baby blankets, booties and sweaters as well as slippers for all us kids when we were growing up. She and Lynn enjoyed camping, traveling and spending time with their grandchildren.
She was survived by her husband, three children, brothers William Jr, Raymond, Ron and Ricky; sisters Elsie Robey, Betty Johnson and Barbara Marchant; eight grandchildren, seven great-grandchildren and several nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents and three brothers: Robert, Donald and Alvin Carver.
