Love for oldies brought her to love Elvis music so much. For a couple years, she held Elvis concerts in the neighborhood. The family home is filled with Elvis, John Wayne and eagle statues and pictures but most of all lots of love for family. Anyone who entered her doors instantly became a friend. She will be so missed.
