Before taking her retirement and enjoying life as a homemaker, she had worked for The Shepherd Place, Dover.

Her hobbies included reading, music and dancing.

Mrs. England was a past Master Rosicrucian, Ancient Mystical Order of Rosae Crucis, a member of the Red Hat Society, a member of Human Services Club of Delaware Technical & Community College, Terry Campus, a member of the Modern Maturity Center, and a past member of the Edgar Cayce Foundation.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by a daughter, Stephanie England; a son-in-law, Charles Ascarino; and two brothers, Samuel Medkeff and Gerald Medkeff.

She is survived by her husband of 51½ years, James C.

Burial will be 2 p.m. Wednesday in the Delaware Veterans Memorial Cemetery South, 100 Patriots Way, Millsboro.
