She was the type of person who always put her family and others ahead of herself. She was a very caring, loving, compassionate and thoughtful person, who always had her doors opened for her family, all of her friends and even strangers. She enjoyed cooking so much that if you came to visit her, she would insist that you would have to eat before you leave or she would fix you a plate or give you a snack to take with you. It was very important to her that no one left her house hungry or thirsty.
