Lessie was a life member at Salem United Methodist Church and had advanced to oldest member status. She and her husband owned and operated Plowman Sheet Metal for many years. While working in the sheet metal industry, they were given the opportunity to travel to many places around the world. Some of their travels included Europe, Mexico, Hawaii, The Virgin Islands, and many more places. One time while in England for a month, they dined on a yacht on The River Thames underneath torch light.

She is survived by her nephew Carol Herlocker and godsons Robert Breading and Cort Gregg.

Lessie was preceded in death by her husband Loyd Plowman; sons Terry Plowman, Cleveland Plowman, and Loyd Plowman, Jr.; and daughter Mary Katherine Plowman.
