   Undine was born Nov. 6, 1927, in Durham, N.C. She met her sweetheart Alan Kernodle in North Carolina but had to follow him to Big Spring for marriage and a family. She and Alan shared 62 years of marriage and were blessed with two children, both girls.

   Undine worked as a secretary for College Heights, Washington and Kentwood schools for many years.
