Mom had a beautiful smile, loved wandering along the ocean with Dad, was a stylish dresser, and was always perfectly put together. She was a proud, stubborn, strong and beautiful woman who dearly loved her family. The family would like especially to thank Mark and Kim Morris for being Mom’s primary caregivers, chief hair-dressers, housekeepers, constant repairmen, and diligent companions for so many years. Mom had the best quality of life possible because of your daily help.
A graveside service at Maplegrove Cemetery in Ravenna, will be held at a later date.
