She enjoyed sewing, and creating fashionable attire with her clothing and jewelry. She had a knack for gardening, caring for animals, dancing, and hosting social gatherings. She was an especially good cook, and her recipes would pass on to her children and grandchildren. She lived a long and fulfilling life, full of memories with family and friends, laughter and travel. Mommy is survived by her 7 children: Tessa, Mike, Lyn, Enee, Francis, John, and Kai. Her legacy continues in the lives of her children, grandchildren (34), great-grandchildren (46), great-great-great grandchildren (11). Mommy will be remembered for her strength, and filling both hearts and homes with comfort and joy. She leaves behind a family who loves her dearly and will forever hold her in their hearts. Thank you Mommy, for all of the memories. We love you so much.
