A member of St. Mary of Grace Church, she had worked at Talon, with her husband as owner and operator of Sammy’s Tavern and the Marine Bar, and at Vulcan Services.
A very well read and helping woman as well as a woman of spirituality and philosophy, she enjoyed the study of using positive energy in our everyday lives. A favorite saying to her grandchildren was, “Wherever I go, wherever I am, my love will always be with you. I have loved you, my darlings, from the moment you came to me.”
