She spent time helping Dad run Green’s Drugstore for over 20 years, and was a member of the Order of the Eastern Star, the Summerland Hospital Auxiliary, and an active member of St. Stephen’s Anglican Church. Mom enjoyed her house and yard, flower arranging, knitting and crocheting, reading and she appreciated nice things. Mom has been described as being a very classy, gracious lady by those who knew her. Thanks for all the beautiful memories, Mom. We love you.
