Our mother was dedicated to her family, her farm and her faith.  She was a person we were very proud to call Mom.  Mom always kept a clean house and cooked great food.  She watched out for her children while actively taking part in farm and household activities.  After her husband, Francis passed away at an early age in 1984; she enjoyed her employment at the North Dakota Legislature and her work on behalf of the ND Democratic NPL.

Her family would like to thank the staff at Sanford off Collins and Miller Pointe for the excellent care she received.  She made many new friends during her stay at these excellent facilities.
