She took pride in housekeeping and cooking delicious meals. She loved taking care of her numerous canine friends (Pepper, Bambi, Brandi, Molly, Oreo and Lucy) through the years. She enjoyed dancing, playing cards with friends, listening good old country music and spending time at the family cabin on Pier Lake.
