Left to cherish her memory is her daughter, Regina “Susie Q” Christian; sister, Sibyl Gleghorn; grandchildren, Kyle Christian and Shana Haggard; great grandchildren, Brayden Haggard and Madison Haggard; son-in-law, Danny Christian (Judy) along with numerous nieces, nephews and extended family members.
