Loving grandmother to Henry Nikolas. Cherished sister of the late James (Lorraine), Donna Cook (Quinn), and Kenneth (Margaret). Proud aunt to many nieces and nephews, friend to all.  A woman of great faith and a true Christian, she was an example of unconditional love, kindness, and forgiveness. One of the rare few whose genuinely sweet nature shone brightly.
