She had a strong faith in God and was known for her loving, caring and generous spirit. She had a wonderful sense of humor, never met a stranger and always made you feel loved in her presence. She was very artistic and enjoyed painting, embroidery, crocheting and making her special Christmas ornaments. Her greatest joy was taking care of her family by showing her love, support and encouragement. She loved her animals and treated them like her own children. In her later years she especially enjoyed receiving cards from her family and friends. She will be greatly missed and her spirit will live on in our hearts.
