Widowed at 37-years old with four kids to raise, our mom worked many jobs ranging from restoring antiques to waiting tables at restaurants such as John’s Famous Stew in Speedway and Ryan’s Family Steakhouse. She enjoyed watching the Colts and playing along with Jeopardy! Words used to describe our mother include loving, beautiful, kind, generous, smart, and brave. She was a very special lady who brightened the life of every person she met. As our family matriarch, it was both a blessing and an honor to have known her. We look forward to when we can once again be reunited.
