She loved to bake and buns were her specialty. She took great pleasure in seeing others enjoy her baking. Mom's love of family was unending. She once remarked her greatest accomplishment was giving birth to her two daughters. Then as grandchildren and great grandchildren stated to arrive, she was overjoyed with love for each of them. Mom prided herself in looking her best. She looked forward to her weekly hair appointment with her favorite hairdressers at Lynn's. They took good care of her. Mom left a lasting impression on the people whose lives she touched and her family will miss her very much. The family would like to thank Dr. Jagga for the compassion and care these past years.
