Not to be forgotten, her spiritual advisor, Benny the Beagle. Missy loved people and could talk to absolutely anyone about anything. Her enthusiasm seemed to energize everyone around her. She loved nature, trusted animals, adored children, and traveling was a favorite thing of hers to do. She said on Facebook that her five favorite words were: "charge it to the room."
