She loved dogs, especially her poodles. She loved plants, flowers and fun. She loved telling jokes but could barely get through one without laughing too much to finish. She had a smile that would light up the room. She loved her husband, her children and grandchildren, and her church.
She was a member of St. Richard Catholic Church in Jackson.
The family wishes to extend their gratitude to the staff of the Madison County Nursing Home.
