She was a kind beautiful spirit. She loved her children from her prior marriage, who were grown, before she married my grandfather. She had beautiful natural carrot colored red hair that she kept up in a tall twisted bun like a cone head. She needed a mastectomy and the HOSPITAL FORCED HER cut it. Before that first surgery, her hair was longer than her body was long by 4 in; I believe she was 5'2" and the hair was 5'6". I have fond memories as a 4, 5, 6, & 7 year old spending summers with her & my grandfather. When she cut it short, she gave her hair freely and generously to the cancer patients. Before the 1990's cancer patients could die very quickly or very slowly. She died of ovarian cancer my freshman year of college. She told me to do my best and I would be a great man. I miss her greatly and think of her often. She died of a horrible disease she only made me study harder to understand what Ovarian cancer. She endured extreme pain without complaint or hate
