She loved having her grandsons spend the night and listening to their stories about ghost upstairs and her granddaughters being together and listening to their stories and laughter. She enjoyed her trips with her nieces and always had interesting stories to share about them, the apple butter brought to her from a church bazaar and snuggling up and sharing hush puppies with a special little someone.
