Our Mom loved her kids, grandkids, nieces and nephews and was generous to them with time and gifts. Mom loved playing the organ and piano, sewing clothes, knitting, and learning new crafts. Cookie baking at Christmas was a favorite as was hosting family parties for every occasion she and Dad could think of. She loved everyone equally she told us that many times. She never intruded in her children's lives or judged us and would offer advice if asked, but let us decide what we needed to do in situations. Mom believed we would make the right decisions because they raised us to do the right thing. She was truly an amazing woman and will be dearly missed by all the lives she touched. Memorial Service Saturday, Sept. 23rd at 11:00 AM at Colonial Church, 6200 Colonial Way, Edina, MN 55436, with visitation one hour prior to service.
