Nothing made her happier than to host her family for birthday and holiday dinners. She loved the music of Elvis Presley and Neil Diamond. She knew the value of a handmade gift and a handwritten letter and enjoyed decorating her homes through the years.

She is survived by her daughter Theresa (John) Atkinson and grandchildren Hayley, Jonathan and Aaron.
