She was born in Mt. Sterling, Kentucky, and was the daughter of the late Pauline Arledge.
She was also preceded in death by; husband, Mike Purpura, grandson David Gaige Overley and brother Ricky Dickerson.
Mom loved bingo, yard sales and to just talk about what was going on at that time. But more than anything else, she loved her family and cherished spending time with them. She was a life-long server and made many friends on the east side of Columbus as it always seemed like she knew someone anywhere we went.
She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother and sister and the world is now emptier without her.
She is survived by her son David (Patty) Overley, granddaughters Madison, Morgan and Maesyn Overley, brothers David (Piedad) Davis of Florida and Michael (Patty) Dickerson of Kentucky. Also, multiple nieces and nephews
A private service will be held in Kentucky at a later date.

A special thanks to the staff at Tuscany Gardens in Pataskala, OH, who did such a wonderful job keeping her comfortable in her last days.
A fire on a chilly night
Lightning bugs and candlelight
New books to read, a fresh baked pie
The clear blue autumn sky
Having music, soft and low
Reading poems from long ago
Smelling balsam warm with sun
Resting after day is done
Life is full of lovely things
Snowy winters, golden springs
And friends, add that special touch
How can one heart hold so much
-Little Things
