She is survived by: her daughter-in-law Heather Peterson; and her grandchildren, Rey, Gavin and Megan.
She was a quilter, writer, and jigsaw puzzler, and even after Parkinson's made it too difficult to do most of the things she loved, she found some digital alternatives to pass the time, completing virtual jigsaw puzzles almost daily.
