She was a parishioner of St. Bridget Catholic Church. We loved this lady. She was amazing. At one time, she was a nun. That's not surprising, because she kept a strong faith throughout her life. She was a loving wife. She was a teacher, farmer, sister, cousin, aunt, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, great-great-grandmother, and served many other roles in her lifetime. She loved gardening, drinking coffee, and eating seafood. Most of all, she enjoyed spending time with her family, especially on Saturday nights. Her strong faith, iron will, and ability to persevere through adversity made her an incredible role model. She was the glue that kept the family together for so long. She will be dearly missed by all her family and friends.
