She is also survived by her sister-in-law, Paula, her niece and nephews and their families and her best friends, Betty and Mary. She was pre-deceased by her best friend, Wee. She will be greatly missed by her family and friends.

We’ll always Remember

That special smile

that caring heart.

That warm embrace

you always gave us.

You being there

for dad and us,

through good and bad times

no matter what.

We’ll always remember

you mom because

there’ll never be anyone

to replace you in our hearts.

And the love we will always

have for you.
