She was “the baby.” Her parents being immigrants from Quebec Canada, it was common and she was excited after 8th grade to start her first full time job in a shoe factory and was at same job for 15 years. She then went into manufacturing as a CNC machinist that she loved and continued until retirement. After retirement she spent much time with her husband in their motorhome at Salisbury Beach. In her early years she competed in roller skating, loved tennis and could never get enough dancing in. Only her brother in law Jodi could keep up with her jitterbug. She cherished her memories of moving furniture to make room for a dance floor to dance with nieces and nephews.

She loved all her cats throughout the years, enjoyed scratch tickets, crocheting, coloring, Bingo, playing cards and picked up reading romance novels when she was 86 years old! She loved playing poker machines in Las Vegas where she later moved to live her last 19 months with her daughter Brenda and husband Andy. All should be comforted knowing during that time she lived in a loving, caring, safe, comfortable home that she so deserved and was content. She will be missed by many.

Celebration of Life in NH and Las Vegas will be announced at a later date. Services will be private.
