She will be missed by her dear Florida friends, with whom she shared a full and happy retirement playing Bridge, Mahjong and going to the movies. She was an avid reader and created many beautiful counted cross stitch needlework pictures. She was always working on a crossword puzzle, word search or 500-piece puzzle. She was an active member of the First Christian Church of Cape Coral, where she had many special friends.
