She was also cherished by several nieces, nephews, cousins and her friends.

Since March when COVID hit us all, residents at Quarry Hill were quarantined and she missed having her meals in the dining room with her friends and all of the other activities there. You could say COVID took her life even though she never had it, she just couldn't take the isolation.

In lieu of flowers, family asks that donations be made to the Shriners Hospital for Children, Donation Department 516 Carew Street, Springfield, MA 01104.
