Along with spending much time as a volunteer she was the first known Uber service but she only collected hugs and kisses from her children and grandchildren as payment!
The things she loved to do the most were traveling the world, horseback riding, teaching archery, bike riding, skating, swimming, tennis, hunting, knitting, beading, reading, and her newest hobbies were the computer and Facebook!
She had such a big heart and a sweet way with all she loved. Growing up she always welcomed our friends into our home and made them feel like family. Even later in life when she became a Nana to Mason and Leah, she always had a smile for their friends as well. She will be greatly missed by many who loved her dearly.
