She was a loving, caring woman with a lively sense of humour. To know her was to like her. She loved craft-work, particularly knitting and most of the family have beautiful knitted garments, which are still in active use today. She and her husband travelled fairly extensively and she also enjoyed her winters in Florida, where many friends were made.
