She entered into eternal rest on Monday, November 30th at home surrounded by her loving family. Birdie grew up on the family farm near Iola, Kansas and was always proud of her country roots. She was very active in 4H during her childhood and very proud of the many awards she received. Upon high school graduation from Iola High School she worked for the Bell telephone company. August 30, 1957, she was united in marriage to Paul W. Bird in Iola, Kansas. After marriage she enjoyed being a homemaker and raising 3 daughters. In 1976 she graduated from LPN school. As a licensed practical nurse she worked as a school nurse and in the hospital bedside setting in Sikeston, Missouri, and Lee's Summit, Missouri, and as a case manager at Allen County Hospital. Her favorite job of all time, however, was being Grandma Henri (Gam) to her 3 beautiful grandchildren. For those fortunate enough to know Birdie they experienced her warm and welcoming smile and hugs. She was always generous and wanted to help those in need. She will be greatly missed but we know she is with our Lord and we will see her again. Birdie was preceded in death by her husband Paul W. Bird, her mother Minnie Grimm Cleaver, and her brother Loraine Cleaver.
