She was married to a Navy man for 54 years. She was a very proud and patriotic wife whose favorite holiday was the 4th of July and she loved decorating for the 4th of July. Everything was red, white, and blue.
She enjoyed yard sales, was a Civil War and WW2 enthusiast, and she loved to shop. Everything had to match perfectly from her head to her toes. That was a running joke in our family for years.

I love you mom *me did*
