Even late in life, her children would go with her to the local casinos.  With her last trip being just a couple of months ago and she never lost. She was so proud of all of her children.  Linda being a longtime employee of Whirlpool Corporation and a computer whiz, Debbie and Brenda being nurses and Ernie a pharmacist.  She always pushed us to do our best and be successful. Peggy took joy in each and every one of her grandchildren and great grandchildren.  Mom was her happiest when she was holding a grand baby and was known as MeMa & Grandma to them.
