She and William liked to go dancing in all the small towns and could often be seen enjoying a motorcycle ride together. She loved to spend time with her friends and family, especially the grandchildren, great grandchildren and great greatgrandchildren.
Her love lives on in her children Larry (Ginny Cooper), Wauzeka, WI, Denise (James) Burton, Lancaster, WI, and Gary (Liz), Horicon, WI, 15 grandchildren, 17 great grandchildren, two great greatgrandchildren, and Sisters-in-law Gladys Wood, Cedar Rapids and Delores McCann, Oelwein.
