She was a beloved sister and extraordinary mother who cared for and raised three sons and four daughters with devotion. As a mother who possessed characteristics such as unconditional love and compassion, she was a teacher of valuable life lessons. Most importantly, she showed her children courage, and was an imperative example of strength. As great of a mother as she was, she was an even greater grandmother as she cherished her twelve grandchildren. Her smile was pure and contagious and will forever be a symbol of the joy she gave. She was preceded in death by her parents, her brother, and brother-in-law, whom she has reunited with.
