Ida was born on August 13, 1917 in Cushing, Oklahoma and she went home to be with her Lord and Savior on December 16, 2009 in Grants, New Mexico.
Ida Mae Grew up in Oklahoma during the Great Depression years and married Frank Hackney on June 14, 1940 in Ponca City, Oklahoma. While he was in basic training to ship out for World War II, their first child Vicki Lynn, was born in November 1942. After Frnak's discharge from the Navy, the family moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico, where Sons Richard (1946) and Jon (1948) joined the family.
The family lived in Albuquerque from 1945 until moving to Grants in 1958. She was active in the community, along with her husband, by being a part of the Chamber of Commerce and volunteering at the hospital. She also volunteered at the local food bank until this last year. Until cancer took a toll on her, she enjoyed walking daily at the community center with her friends.
Ida Mae was loved by all who knew her. She had a great wit and sense of humor and was very hospitable. She was also a strong Christian who had amazing faith that set a wonderful example of kindness and generosity to all she knew. Her love of the Lord was the rock in her life. She welcomed all who came to her home and made them feel at thome. She and Frank enjoyed many years of travel, golfing, and socializing with their many friends. In 1990 she an Frank celebrated 50 years of marriage. She was always ready to go anywhere the family was going. She even made a trip to South Korea in 2002 at the age of 85 to attend her grandson Matt's wedding to Seo-young Lim. For her 90th birthday in 2007 she was able to enjoy the company of many of her nieces and nephews, as well as all of her grandchildren and great grandchildren. She will be sorely missed by all who knew her, but she left many good memories.

Hackney of Grants, New Mexico and Jon Hackney and Wife Jeanette of Grants, New Mexico; Grandchildren: Kevin Witherspoon, Matt Withersopon, Stephen Hackney, Rhonda Hegland, Phil Hackney and Jessica Wyatt; 8 Great Grandchildren; She is also survived by numerous nieces and nephews, and three sisters-in-laws: Cleo Hackney Shafer, Adalee Hackney Hardy, and Nancy Hackney Angelino.
