She loved her Lord, she loved her church and her entire church family.

She was bossy, she was sassy, and she loved living life on the edge-even in her older years ("How fast can this boat go? And does the RZR go any faster?" - mind you, she was 90!)

She was the consummate shopper, and she loved her morning donuts.

She will be missed by all those who knew her and loved her.
