From her children:

We had incredible parents that showed nothing but love to us. Our mom was the most selfless person that we know. She would do absolutely anything for anyone, almost to a fault. She was so strong, they both were very hardworking people, just to give their kids a better life. They made certain that we had the absolute best Christmas' ever. To this day we don't know how our mom gave unconditional love to everyone, we so admired her tendencies to forgive people. She was an incredibly giving soul. She will be dearly missed but never forgotten. Special thanks to Uncle Skip and Aunt Dorothy for the care you provided to mom, We love you mom Darlene, Gerald and Greg.
