Attending Christmas Eve service with her family was a highlight to her holiday season, and she loved spending time with her grandkids and great-grandkids. She will be missed at the annual Bridy family reunion in Hegins.

Surviving are her husband, Calvin Nolter; son, Brian Nolter, and his wife, Sharon; daughter, Barbra Shannon, and her husband, Mike; daughter, Marie Johnson; daughter, Elaine Evanicki, and husband, Bill; daughter, Amanda Nolter; seven grandchildren, Max Nolter, Shawn Lazar, Louis Lazar, Jennifer Shannon, Bobby Johnson, Joshua Ruchko and Yelena Hontz; 11 great-grandchildren; a brother, Mickey Nestico; and nieces and nephews.
