One of the kindest, funniest, interesting, and loving people I got to meet from my husband's side of the family. Her laugh/giggle somehow made everyone do the same thing. Definitely loved her family and was a true testament to living healthy and putting others before herself. Will always remember her with a smile:) God bless you! Bruce and Gail Middleton and Family
