She was currently a proud member of the mission board, the women of charity and served as Sunday School Superintendent. For many years, Mrs. Owens led numerous auxiliaries with diligent fervor and the unconditional love of Christ. In August 1997, she started the S.H.E.E.P. prayer line leading ladies in early morning prayer. She was the “Down Hole Gospel Radio Show” host for KMVL for over thirty years.

She is survived by the father and grandfather of her children, Carl Owens; her loving daughters, Carla Elizabeth Owens-Johnson, Elizabeth Rachel Johnson and Nicole L. Thomas-Smith. She has two grandchildren, eleven great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandchild. She is the loving godmother to Gabriel Baldwin and special “granny” to Jacelynn “Paige” Lotts.
