Eventually they moved to Rock Hill in 1966 and began raising their family. She was the wife of a minister for 64 years and a member of Oakland Baptist Church for 58 years. Vonda ministered to her church family by creating and sending holiday and birthday cards to the veterans, college students, and high school graduates of the church, and to the children at the Connie Maxwell Children’s Home.
