There were several mission trips abroad where she helped with a lot of needs and ministered. She had many passions and loved her teapots and angels which she collected. She loved having ice cream parties once a week - it was a must. Her laughter and smile was contagious and lit up a room. She loved being a servant for God and spreading the word and would not hesitate to pray for or with someone. She also sang in the choir and always said one day she would be singing in the most heavenly choir, rejoicing with our Father in heaven!
So Mama, sing in that most beautiful place with that angelic voice.
We love you MAMA!
