She was a member of St. Luke’s United Methodist Church. She had a wide and varied career including teaching third grade in Rule, Texas, and completing her father’s term as Superintendent of Schools following his death. During World War II, she worked as a journeyman mechanic doing riveting inside the wings of combat planes since she was the smallest mechanic they had. After moving to Odessa, she worked for Gage & Cochran Insurance and Real Estate for 27 years until her retirement. She and her husband owned rental property and following his death, until about 89 years of age, she did repairs on the property herself, replacing dry wall and commodes, painting the houses inside and out, and laying carpet. She could do anything that she set her mind to. Her independence and hard work set a very good example for her family.
She was a fisherman and loved teaching her nieces and nephews everything she knew. The road between Odessa and Breckenridge knew her well. Baseball was another love, and she continued to watch or listen to baseball games until her death.
Survivors include step-daughter, Barbara Ann May of Bakersfield, Calif.; nieces and nephews, Joe C. Zant Jr. and wife Ray Ann of Odessa, Celia Bowden and husband Jean of Bronte, Elizabeth Ann Burks of Austin, Nita Zant of Odessa, Warren Hitt of Panama City, Fla., Merritt Hitt of San Antonio and Victor Lee Trammell of Arlington. She also had many great nieces and nephews who cared for her during her life including Clif Zant, Cathy Hoggard and Laura Zant, all of Odessa, Jerry Zant, Scott Bowden, Kent Bowden and Van Bowden, all of Midland, and many others who do not live in the area.
The family would like to express their appreciation to many of the nurses, aides and other staff members of Avalon Nursing Home, and the wonderful nurses at Hospice Home, for the care and love given to “Aunt Dink.”
