She loved working at the 50/50 Barn and took great joy in finding Jim his $1.00 ties. She was very proud to be a Red Cross Volunteer.

Her cookie jar was always full; she had dinosaur Band-Aids and gave superior hugs.
When she died, everything was just so: She was at home with Terry and Nan; there was a lilac on her pillow, music softly playing, and her birds singing and playing outside her window. She left this life gracefully as she lived it.
Survivors include her son and his wife, Terry and Nan Friel of Marion, IN; her four grandchildren, Terry Jr., and wife Darcy, and Scott, Sara, and Jake; her two great-grandchildren, Gabriel and Madison; her much beloved brother, Don Sullivan of Washington, DC; a sister, Ann Keltler of Canal Fulton; and many nieces and nephews.
