She worked in that field at the Fort Morgan hospital. She moved to the
Carthage area in the 1990s to be near her children.

She was a member of the First Christian Church and the Over 60 Center.

Mrs. Cordaway is survived by her two daughters, Stephanie Klang of
Fidelity, Mo., and Linda Cordaway of Joplin, Mo.; a son, David Cordaway
of Carthage; two sisters, Phyllis Claver of Sterling and Karen Beck of
Fort Morgan; two brothers, William Beck of Wiggins and Donald Beck of

and Steven Beck.

A memorial service will be held Sunday at 2 p.m. at the Light House
