At 9, she relocated with her mother to her beloved hometown of Memphis, TN. "The Big M" what she affectionately called it. And longed to return there. There she developed a love of music. She took piano lessons and still, tickled those ivories, in the comfort of her home. Music was a major enjoyment to her, and she had a record collection that musical connoisseurs would envy. Her favorite artist was Otis Redding, Aretha Franklin and her hometown legend and friend, BB King. With her two daughters, Gwendolyn & Gladys relocated to Kansas City, MO. There she met her beloved husband Allen Miller, they were married up until his passing in 1997.
