She graduated from St. Joseph Academy and attended The Ohio State University. She was a member of Our Lady of Peace Church since 1946 and lived a life of faith and family which was everything to her. To those who knew her, she was a good friend who always welcomed them into her home. When they left, they usually found themselves with a package of her cinnamon rolls. Every birthday, anniversary and holiday were special occasions, always remembering those who were dear to her. She loved to talk and laugh, and her warm smile and soft touches comforted those she embraced. All those who knew her, loved her. She is dearly missed.
