While living in St. James, she volunteered at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, enjoyed playing bridge (and all kinds of card games) and traveled with her beloved husband and many close friends. She will be remembered for her love of family and friends; her laughter; her amazingly positive attitude; and her ability to make everyone feel special.
