She was born on April 30, 1928 in Cabot, PA to Margaret and Alfred Moser. Cabot remained in her heart and was always remembered as “home” no matter where she lived.
She worked as a beautician and at the mushroom mine before landing her dream job as a mom. Family was everything to her! With 6 children, 22 grandchildren and 27 great grandchildren she was blessed to love and be loved by her large family. She was the thread in the fabric of our lives.
She had the kindest soul, a golden heart and an unwavering faith in God. She volunteered at her church and enjoyed travelling, scratch-offs & slot machines, puzzles, crocheting and anything chocolate. In her younger days she loved roller skating and weekend dances with her girlfriends.
