Minter finds peace with God in gardening

Minter finds peace with God in gardening
members of the Dogwood Garden Club pose with Cathy Minter when they presented her with their Yard of the Month last year. Minter’s yard is always adorned with a bounty of colors and she says the work brings her peace.

When Cathy Minter lost her leg in December of 2018, she said her will to live went with it. But it was the love of gardening that brought her joy.

The day after Christmas 2018, Minter underwent surgery to remove her right leg due to complications with deep vein thrombosis and diabetes.

“I was ready to give up after I lost my leg. I was in a dark place. And I prayed for God to take me. But God wasn’t ready for me,” Minter said.
