She enjoyed sewing, reading, shopping and loved her ice cream. Her greatest love was her family. She enjoyed any time she could spend with her daughter, son-in-law and granddaughters.
She leaves her daughter Melissa “Missy” and her husband Nick (her Nicky), O’Connell, of McDonald, to cherish her memory; grandchildren, Hailey of Louisiana (her Hailey Elizabeth, whose achievement of a recent BSN, RN was a source of great pride) and fiancés, Mark (her boy Marky) and Ayleesh Dorren (her little girl, whose dancing brought her great joy) and many many loving cousins, nieces and nephews.
