They included sewing, card making, chocolate making, gardening, playing cards, Yahtzee, spending time with her grandchildren, reading, family dinners, canning, jam making, picking berries, her angel collection, and going for a drive that usually ended with a stop at the Dairy Queen.

Countless late nights were spent at her sewing machine creating clothing for the kids from pajamas to special outfits for family events.
