She was a loving and caring mother to all. She had a love of horses that went back to when her father first set her on one when she was three. She loved art and crafts and crocheted until the very last trying to make sure she had something to add to the sale for Pine Lake Camp in which she heavily supported. Throughout her fight with cancer, she stayed strong in her faith and was always trying to help others first. She kept positive through it all and kept that awesome smile flashing until the end. She was also a member of Gulf Haven Mennonite Church in Gulfport.
A memorial service will be held on Sunday, February 22, 2015, at 2pm at Gulf Haven Mennonite Church.
