After that they took up farming on the family farm full time. From 1970 to 1980 Deloris was employed as a cook at the Cambria Junior High School. It was more than a job for her. She made an impact on many children's lives through her nurturing and caring for each individual child, and also was a darn good cook. Deloris was a wonderful, selfless, dedicated and patient mother and grandmother. Deloris was also a loving daughter that took care of her mother in later years when she became ill. Left to treasure her memory are her husband of 60 years, Don, and her three children: Linda Miner of Chariton, Jim and Brenda Miner of Cambria, Sherry and Jon Trower of Corydon. Five grandchildren, Jacob Miner, Stefanie Miner and friend Ryan Wallace, Matthew Miner, Ashley and Adam Hysell, and Brandon and Heidi Trower.
