She even made the drapery for the church. She worked with hospice patients with her devoted dog baby girl.
She enjoyed cooking, canning and won blue ribbons for her apple pies and took classes on Chinese cooking. She had many hobbies, sewing, stained glass, refinishing antique furniture, making Victoria lampshades, upholstering furniture. Her passion was gardening and dancing. Tom and Betty spent many years line dancing. She loved painting with acrylics and oils.
Avid Boater and member of the Bluewater wood turners of Michigan.
