July 31, 1949 - May 4, 2025In Loving Memory of Our Beloved Mom, Nana, Grandma, and Friend
With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our dear mother, grandmother, and cherished friend. She left this world on May 4th after a long and courageous battle with Crohn’s disease, a fight she faced with quiet strength, fierce determination, and an unshakable love for her family. Son David (Nadine) Daughter Lisa (Dave) and grandsons Mike and Dre.
Life was not always easy for her. She endured many hardships and carried more than her share of pain, but she never let it define her. Despite the struggles she faced — physically and emotionally, — she remained one of the sweetest souls you could ever meet. Her resilience was remarkable, her spirit unbreakable.
She was the kind of person who would do anything for anyone. No matter how difficult things were for her, she always put others first. Her love was selfless, her kindness genuine, and her compassion endless. Even on her hardest days, she still found a way to show up for those she loved — with a smile, a warm hug, or a few comforting words that always seemed to be exactly what you needed to hear.
She was a devoted mom, a proud and loving Nana and Grandma, and a true friend to many. She found joy in life’s simple pleasures — a phone call from her grandkids, a sunny afternoon, or the companionship of her sweet pup Riley who misses her terribly.
Though we are heartbroken by her loss, we are forever grateful for the time we had with her. Her strength, love, and memory will live on in all of us.
Rest peacefully now, sweet lady.
Your fight is over, but your love carries on.
