Erma retired in the early 2000s to spend time with her husband, mother and family. She loved to spend time with her husband, Myron, and her family more than anything else.

Farley III, Kayla Jordan Bailey Means, Jordan Lynn Farley, McKenna Ann Bailey and Alexandria Jean Bailey; great-grandchildren, James Wallace Jordan Means and Richard Elijah January Means, Jr. of Oklahoma.

Would love to see that reunion with her Lord and her husband Myron. Her and her husband were great neighbors as a kid growing up in Hanahan. Our prayers go out to the family.
