There will be no public services.
Let us not be surrounded by the sorrow of the day, instead let us look back and rejoice in her memories and adventures. All of you that knew her, knew she never met anyone she didn't like until proven otherwise. Everyone was a friend, everyone was welcome to sit at her table. If you needed a shirt, she would give you hers. If you needed something to eat, she would give you her last piece of bread. If you needed a place to sleep, she would gladly give you her bed. Most of all she was Mom, Grandma and Great Grandma. She was very loving to all of us. Her grandkids brought her the most joy of all. She left this world peacefully, surrounded by her family. We love you.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made to the Peru Animal Shelter or the Scratching Post Cat Rescue.
Arrangements have been entrusted to Flowers-Leedy Funeral Home and also the source.
