She lived the last 12 years of her life at Mallard Landing in Salisbury Md. where she enjoyed a very active social life. She developed many wonderful friendships, and she was always up for a get together with friends. If there was a game of bridge, she was always ready to play. If there was a party ,she was not going to miss it. In her younger years she was quite the world traveler. She was always up for trip. If anyone was going somewhere she was ready to pack a suitcase and take off. She will be greatly miss by her family and friends. We know she is organizing social gatherings with the many friends and family members who have welcomed her into heaven. The family knew her great love and passion for the military. She was from a family where all branches of the military were represented. She was a supporter of the Wounded Warrior Project. In that light, we ask that donations be made to Wounded Warrior Project in lieu of flowers.
