She loved her flowers, quilting, her pencil sharpener collection, shopping with her sisters, but most of all she loved her kids and her grandkids. She was a wonderful cook and loved spoiling everyone with her meals and made sure everyone got a birthday cake. She was always available for any family needs. She was the best mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and sister in the world. She will be greatly missed by all her family and friends.
