Our Mom, Grandmother was a simple yet special woman. She was a hard working farm wife who never asked for much while raising her 6 children with love! She was called Nanny or Nanny Sap and Grammy lovingly by her Grandchildren
Having the opportunity to mind her Grandchildren brought great joy to her heart, while there they wouldn’t be out of her sight. She enjoyed going on vacations with her sister, Loved to cook, play cards, sing, yodel, dance and attempted to play the spoons.
Friends and Family were always welcome in her home.
A special thank you goes out to all the Homecare workers and Dr. Fisher for their truly compassionate in-home care over the years!
