She never met a stranger. She was so kind and loving to all she knew. Everyone describes her as “One of a Kind”! She was truly a gem!

Living in her present home for 45 years, her neighbors became her extended family. Anyone who knew her knew of her love of animals. Always trying to save a bird, squirrel or any other creature that came along.

She will be extremely missed but thoughts of her will always put smiles on our faces!
