She was beautiful inside and out with a generous, giving heart. She was a longtime volunteer for "Meals on Wheels" in Palos Park, and an active member of Sertoma, hosting their monthly Bingo Mornings up until three years ago. Without a doubt her greatest joy was being with her family. The world was a better place having her in it.
