For over seventy years, she hosted an Easter celebration and egg hunt welcoming the entire community to her home.  She was a lady who shared gracious acts of kindness with all of whom she came into contact. She was a devoted daughter, and beloved wife who will be dearly welcomed into heaven and truly missed by those on earth.
