Mom loved life and lived it to the fullest. She endeavored to complete her bucket list, alongside Mel. They traveled extensively around the world. Amongst her favorite outdoor activities, she treasured earlier years of camping and fishing with her family and grandchildren. Mom was artistic, making her own glass beads for sewing. She enjoyed painting to which she and Mel displayed around their home. She was a voracious reader, in later years she continued to read daily. Mom loved her cat Jazz and a black cup of coffee with a cigarette watching wildlife outside her home. She would always tell us kids “go do what you enjoy while you still can”.
