and believed you should always keep your brain active. She loved to
learn; keeping up with the latest medical information, history, and arts and
crafts. She was an extremely talented ceramics artist and created many
beautiful items including villages and a Nativity Scene that Curtis is
especially proud of. She was also a very talented seamstress. She enjoyed
camping and many other ventures.
