Mrs. Stone was born Oct. 5, 1953, in Joplin, Mo. After graduating from Jasper (Mo.) High School she earned a certificate as a cosmetologist and had worked at My Fifth Avenue Salon in Lamar, Mo. As a younger adult, her interest in health and fitness led to a pastime of body building. When declining health prevented strenuous exercise, she remained as active as possible and enjoyed many days fishing at local lakes and ponds. A natural caregiver, she was known for her big heart and love for her family.
