Her grandchildren said it best…she was a woman of great faith. She was kind, loving, funny and fun. She was powerful, but approachable and never met a stranger. She commanded presence but never asked for the attention. There aren’t enough words to explain how incredible she was. She was the matriarch of 30-plus family members, but she was beloved by so many more. We will carry her in our hearts all the days of our lives.
Visitation will be Wednesday, December 27, 2017, from 1:00 PM until 2:00 PM at Pine Grove Church.
We would like to thank her caregivers at St. Francis MICU Randy, John, Caroline, Jennifer, and Danni.
In lieu of flowers, please make memorials to Pine Grove Memorial Fund.
