Mimi was a wonderful daughter, taking care of her mother in her later years, the best sister and sister-in-law anyone could have prayed for, and the ultimate aunt and great aunt. She had the qualities of independence, perseverance, compassion, humor and most of all, the gift of being a loyal friend to all. She was a "heck" of a lot of fun. Our lives have been enriched by her and we look forward to being together forever in heaven.
