She liked working on crafts such as cross stitching and coloring, and also liked to exercise her brain by doing word puzzles and jig saw puzzles. She loved her family dearly, and cherished the time she spent with her children and grandchildren. She was very cheery, loving, caring, and never complained about anything.
