Her most precious times were spent with her family, frequent family dinners being her most treasured times. A devoted wife, mother and grandmother, she enjoyed gardening, knitting, crocheting and crossword puzzles, reunions with her classmates and the friendships of the White Ensign. She was very proud of her family with her grandchildren holding a special place in her heart. Cremation has taken place.
