Gosh I am so sorry to see her go. I will miss her a lot. I remember going to her house as a kid and sitting around the dining room table and playing cards with all the families for penny's, it was a blast. I remember her huge garden she had, and all the canning she did. I remember going to her and Mark's lake cabin, fishing with her, and how she always fished for sunfish with corn. She will be missed by many of family and friends. She was so wonderful.R.I.P. Ly. Love you and always will.
