Each memory they share is woven with her guidance and affection, reflecting the nurturing nature that defined her. Eunice is also survived by her sister Mary Thurman.

Eunice found joy in countless hobbies and interests, often bringing family and friends together. Whether it was catching fish, gathering for cards or poker nights, delighting in bowling, or sharing laughter on the dance floor, Eunice created treasured memories that will forever be held close in the hearts of her family. She loved baking cakes, engaging in Sahara Grotto Activities, and enjoyed watching Jeopardy. A special fondness for bananas and Graham crackers sweetened her days and brightened those around her.

Her bond with her grandchildren—Adrienne Taylor, Robert "Luke" Taylor, Robert Medsker, and Haley (Devon) Higdon—was a source of immense pride and joy. Each moment spent with them was a celebration of life, laughter, and learning, and Eunice's influence will continue to guide them as they carry forward her spirit.
