She was a fantastic cook and loved sharing her recipes and knowledge in the kitchen with younger generations. She was the happiest when in the midst of her family. A devout Catholic who loved her church, her greatest joy came at Christmas when she would meticulously set up her very large nativity in her home and follow the manger custom on Christmas Eve, passed down to her through the generations. She also loved a good bargain and enjoyed going to flea markets and thrift stores.
