Adrienne moved to Dallas, TX, in 1966. Adrienne had many friends in both St .Louis and Dallas with whom she played bridge and canasta. She participated in fundraisers for Jewish causes in dance routines. She was a lifelong avid reader, a pile of romance and mystery novels checked out from libraries was always nearby. Just on the Kindle alone, from 2015 to 2020, she read 451 books. They had to be put on an Excel spreadsheet just to keep up in order to prevent duplication, which did happen from time to time. She loved going to all her children's and grandchildren's athletic games. S he was their biggest fan and supporter. She also took exercise class with her friends, but she was really taking the exercise class to go out and have a nice lunch with the ladies after class. She was very close to her sister Meryl, or Aunt Moey, as Adrienne's children called her. They loved to shop and go to Vincent’s every Sunday - except during Dallas Cowboys season.
