With her family (14), she enjoyed having and cooking meals (7), spending time at the beach (12), doing puzzles (27), and playing (13) Scrabble (and winning, of course. Total score: 164).
Funeral services will be held Saturday, Nov. 11, at 10:30 a.m. at Harold C. Snowdon Funeral Home, Inc., 140 N. Main St., Shavertown. Interment will follow in Mt. Olivet Cemetery, Carverton. Friends may call from 9:30 a.m. until time of funeral.

My dearest friend in PA, I'll miss her terribly. I had so much fun over the years with Midge and Al. She took me under her wing at United Way in '78 and that began a 45-year friendship. I'll also miss her family, whom I would see from time to time when they came to visit her. I'll be in Georgia on November 11th and am sad I won't see all of you. I loved her dearly and know she's reunited with Al now.

Midge was one of my favorite people . I always loved spending time with her . She was like a second mom to me and my brothers . She showered us with love our whole lives and treated us like her own . I will miss her terribly but am glad she´s reunited with Al and my parents ..
