An avid reader, brilliant story-teller, writer of poetry, and a life-long interest in politics and world news, she was rarely at a loss for words. One of her finest qualities was her sense of humour and her ability to laugh out loud at her own boo-boos and blunders. A social butterfly to the end, she was always ready for Euchre, Scrabble, trivia, learning a new craft, or simply chatting, sharing the stories of her life in her beloved Newfoundland & Labrador, a life for which she was ever grateful.
