Mom loved to spend time with her family and she was loved by all of us. She enjoyed travelling with us, enjoyed a game of Skipbo and a good cup of tea, with a snack, of course, with her extended family at Charwood Manor. She was very active in her senior years, swimming, skiing and walking until the onset of her illness this year.
