She most recently was a cook at Senor Peppers for the past nine years. Belinda made a profession of faith and was a member of Our Savior's Lutheran Church in Camdenton. She loved spending her free time sewing. She made many beautiful pillows and crafts. Her family benefitted for her sewing skills as she repaired and fixed many items for them. She was an excellent cook and baker. Most of all, time spent with her grandchildren was most important to her. She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, sister and aunt and a caring neighbor and friend. We celebrate her life and her accomplishments and will treasure the memories she created for her family and friends. Mom never knew a stranger and anyone who met her either left with a big smile or she spoke her mind and that's just how it was.
