She was a member of the Saint John Neumann Catholic Church.
Her love will live on in her husband; their son, Edward D. Foulke, III, husband of Patti of Lancaster; three grandchildren, Katie of Lancaster, Abbie of Nashville, and Ted of Pittsburgh; and a brother, John Bowers of Summerville, South Carolina. She was preceded in passing by her parents and a brother, Barry Bowers.
