Mom also enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren in Maine and Connecticut, walking, trips to Maine and to the ocean, oil painting, collecting teddy bears, flower gardening, and taking photos of animals. Mom is happy now in the loving arms of her husband Bill and her son William Scott. We mourn her passing, but rejoice in the happiness she brought to each of our lives.”
