She grew up in Tell, Texas and at age 10 joined Tell Methodist Church on April 7, 1935. Gwyn graduated from Tell High School in 1941 and she attended West Texas State College (now West Texas A & M University) graduating with a BS in 1944 and an MA in 1948.

She loved her family dearly and was known as Nan by her grandchildren and great grandchildren. She was always showing pictures of her two grandchildren to everyone she knew. She enjoyed babysitting them and picking them up from school when they got older. After she had great grandchildren, she talked about them constantly and laughed at all of their funny stories.
