She was a lover of all thing's music and electronics. Her many hobbies included fishing, spending quality time with her loved ones, and countless other things. Gidget absolutely cherished her children and grandchildren. There would never be a moment that went by that she wasn't glowing and bragging about her children's accomplishments.
Gidget was a forced to be reckoned with. To know her is to love her. She was a selfless person who always put others before her own needs, her laugh and smile were contagious and could light up a room, and her sense of humor was one of a kind. Gidget was such a light in the lives of everyone she encountered. She made sure that you felt loved, she made sure that you knew you were doing a great job. She always made sure you knew she was proud of you. The role she played was of many. She was often known as Gizmo, Nane, G.G., Fathead, Lucy, Gidgaire, Giz, but at the end of the day, whatever she was known as, her love was genuine and pure.
