She then moved to Post Falls, ID with her daughter La Von and they built a home together in 1993. One of her greatest joys in life was cooking, sewing and being outside in her flower garden with her Kitties. She had a wonderful zest for life and she embraced every moment at its fullest. She considered her family and friends as a gift and never took anything or anyone for granted. She had a beautiful soul and her blue eyes always had a twinkle in them. She was a wife, mother and friend you could always trust and count on for guidance and help. She went through many hardships but never wavered in strength. Thank you Mom for being the best mother and wife a daughter and family could ever have. "God could not be everywhere so he created Mothers".
