In her younger days, she was an active curler, golfer and a proud supporter of Campbellton hockey. Her favorite season was summer where she could not wait to sit on her veranda and watch the people and the traffic go by, as well as have people drop in and visit. She looked forward to spending a few weeks every summer basking in the sun, at the Loch Lomond Fishing Club in St. Arthur. However, her greatest love was her grandchildren and great grandchildren whose visits she looked forward to, whose photos she cherished and whose letters she read over and over.
