deeply. She leaves behind a lasting legacy of faith and strength of character. We will miss her
fondness for glitzy hats and her unique colorful sense of style. As an outgoing social person who loved to entertain, she leaves to

mourn her numerous friends including her lifelong friendship with our dear family friend Ritva Saukko.
