One of the places that she loved to go to since her early years was Peaks Island. This was a place of many memories of joy for her and when she married and had children the family would go there during the summer months. It was at Peaks Island that she first met her future husband Peter. They both would tell the story in their later years about how they first met while he was coming out of the water and she was meeting her father at the boat and that she asked her father if she could linger a bit to watch her future husband as he swam.
She is predeceased by her husband, Peter; her siblings Ruth, Jack, Helen, Robert, Daniel, Jean, and Peter.
