Then in the winter of 1980 they bought their first house which they would call “Home” for the next 42 years. In this nest she raised one well behaved and one not so well-behaved son along with one beautiful daughter. She spent most of her time outside in her yard tending to her gardens. Her most loved and desired hobby was to be with her family. She was always trying to find ways to get her grandkids by her side. She had a group of close friends that gossiped for hours and partake in monthly games such as Bunk or Pakino. Her last years were spent attending birthdays, family holidays, and camping, still close to her immediate family. She remained strong, despite her battles. As she cherished every moment she had left with the people she loved and the ones that loved her.
