She was petite butstrong and a force to be reconned with. She was spitfire and very honest and did not mind sharing her opinion. She was very generous and had a servant's heart. She was a natural caregiver and cared for the elderly and her grandchildren, whom she cared for and loved dearly. She was an exceptional cook and loved cooking for others, especially her grandchildren. Her corn and flour tortillas were incredible and like no other. She was self-taught and talented at sewing, crocheting, and needle point. She was selfless and loved her family so much and was always concerned and praying for them daily. She found great joy in watching her grandchildren play sports and loved watching the Dallas Cowboys. She had so much fun with scratch-off lotto tickets because of her lucky hand.
