Young at heart, and a bit of a jokester, Mom was always fun to be around. People of all ages were drawn to her kind, gentle and caring heart, but especially her "young ones" who always brought her so much joy. Mom had a career as an insurance accountant, but family always came first with her and Dad, who instilled in their children, the importance of faith, family, and hard work. Being a loving and caring person, Mom was always selfless, instinctively knowing what her loved ones needed. She will be SO greatly missed.
