She was an avid lover of the outdoors and especially loved working in her flower garden and doing yard work up until she was no longer able to do so. She loved all of God’s animals and enjoyed being surrounded by nature. She was especially fond of children and she cherished all children no matter who they were. They brought such joy into her life. She was an extremely loving person and loved being around her family and friends.
