A woman of great capacity, family historian and keeper of the lighthouse in the storm of life.

Mom had many interests in her life. She loved music, dancing, bowling, playing cards, scrabble and doing crosswords. Mom and Dad camped and travelled extensively, enjoying life to the fullest. She cherished the support of her family and friends. Her home was open to all. Mom’s welcoming, nurturing spirit will be sorely missed.
