She was an avid reader, daily crossword puzzle completer [including Saturdays], a sanctioned league bowler [with over 160 average], a weekly bridge player (with Curt, Miriam, Shirley and Virginia) and a scrabble aficionado. She especially loved her children, seven grandchildren, and her husband, "Pablo." In her later years, while in "semi-retirement," weekends were spent at their lakehouse at Lake Livingston, Texas where she raised lots of flowers, especially her plumeria flowers, and continued her sewing, making photo albums, and playing scrabble with her children, Ken, Lisa and Patricia, and her grandchildren Jessica and Robert. She will be sorely missed by her family and everyone who knew her as she was loved by everyone she met. A celebration of her life will be held between 6-10 pm at Paradigm Funeral Home, 6605 S.
