MODENA MEEKER
January 17, 1925 - April 04, 2013

Modena Day Meeker passed away on April 4, 2013 near her home in Houston, TX. She was a beloved mother and grandmother, and was happiest when spending time with her family.

She grew up in Baytown, TX, with her parents and two sisters, Marjorie and Clara Loyce, all of whom have predeceased her. Modena attended Robert E. Lee High School, and then raised her four children, primarily as a single mother. She worked for Nabisco in Houston, retiring in 1988 after 29 years of service. For many years she lived in Pasadena, TX, but she returned to Baytown after retirement. Modena enjoyed gardening, which was her passion, cooking and spending time with family members.

She will be missed by her son Glenn and his wife Zina, daughter Marsha and her husband Brian, and her son Mark and his wife Suzi, plus grandchildren Laura, Kevin, Robert, Sean, Joni, Jerry, Jacob and Alex. She also had 10 great grandchildren.

Her son Don died in June 2012.
