She worked hard many years as a house keeper. She was loved by all her clients. Mom worked wonderfully with her hands. Sewing and making quilts for her family. She loved the outdoors. Camping, hunting, dirt bike riding, and fishing. Sometimes spending more time fishing for ROCKS! Huge rock collection. She took great pride in her gardens. She could grow anything. Her backyard was a sanctuary. All the neighbors enjoyed walking by her beautiful yard. She loved playing cards and was good at it. 5 crowns being one of her favorites at the cabin.

She was devoted mother. Her biggest blessings in her life came in the faces of her 7 grandchildren and 17 great grandchildren. She loved to have them visit and share hugs and kisses.
