She will always be in our hearts

Michael's mom passed away on Monday night. She had been fighting cancer for the last two years.  She was at home and surrounded by the ones she loved when she passed.

She was most happy when she was around those she loved, and doing the things she loved, which were quilting and sewing; those were her passion. She was married for over 50 years; she and the girls' grandpa had a great relationship. She loved animals; she had many cats and dogs over the years, and even a ferret. She loved being at home, sitting in her favorite chair working on a quilt, or at the table working on a sewing project while watching her favorite shows on TV. She liked visiting with family and would usually have a smile on her face when she would listen to the many stories, or the latest news, family members would share; she loved listening to what others were up to. She was a wife, mom, grandmother, sister, aunt, mother-in-law, and friend. She will be missed by many.

Here are a few pics...
