She loved her flowers and goldfish pond. Was amazing with a crochet needle. Collected stamps and porcelain dolls for years. Always enjoyed a peaceful walk with the dogs.
In her final years she embraced life. Visiting with friends, going to a few ball games to watch her grandchildren and making a point to find the perfect cake for birthdays in her final months. She loved and was loved in return.
