In her younger years, she enjoyed dancing, and was liked by everyone. She was an excellent cook. She possessed a keen sense of humor and was never one to complain. She maintained her independence and never wanted to be a bother to anyone. Her family was very important to her and she especially enjoyed all of her grandchildren.
