Mom enjoyed being outdoors; Flint Ridge and Old man's cave were a couple of her favorite places. She enjoyed camping, fishing, hiking, mushroom hunting, and plants and her love for animals was abundantly evident by the variety of creatures she cared for, in her life. She was interested in history and antiques and enjoyed her jobs at Adena Mansion and at the Logan Historical society, but she also worked as a drug and alcohol counselor. She was a creative woman and very knowledgeable in many facets and always eager to share her wisdom as well as many life lessons that I'm sure we will all realize, well into our futures. She was strong, opinionated, done things her way and fierce but she loved, just as fiercely. Per her wishes, there will be no funeral services but donations to your local humane society would bring her joy.
