"Everyone is born and everyone has to die." She stated as though she knew of her imminent passing, just weeks before her death. She was a tough one, stubborn even in her last days, as she was losing a battle with peptic ulcer disease, and COPD. She was the cornerstone of her family, the delegator if family affairs and was cool to hang out with and get to know. She loved animals, her four children,  hunting moose, cooking, gardening,  flowers, and especially butterflies. She was a survivor of many hard times but she never stopped being curious about new things, always inquisitive, a mother and caretaker, a momma bear , a forward thinker, and a lover of so much music from the 60s-now, she loved anything British invasion and even was known to listen to rap with her son and or daughters. She taught those that would listen how to be fair, and showed those around her how to be faithful by her marriage to her husband of over 33 years. She always stuck up for those less fortunate, and for those being picked on, and could be counted to give anything she had to a person in need, and she cared greatly for those who had disabilities or were suffering with any ailments. She was very close to her father but lost him to a stroke when she was only 17, and faced many hardships during her life that she overcame and still was a great mother and always a good friend. She played guitar, sung, and danced, and even complained her way into the hearts of so many. We will never forget you and your beautiful heart. May God keep you and may you rest in peace until we see you again. Passed on to paradise, she is surely a guardian angel that protects her loved ones. We give you to God, we love you forever, we will be together again soon mom! You found the key, and now are free!
