Mom was a great bread maker and was an expert in sewing. She sewed all of our clothes, including jeans, coats, dresses of all types and liked to sew matching outfits for her 2 sons that would match our dad’s shirts. She even sewed our Barbie dolls clothes! She loved to swim up until she had to get her tracheotomy because of her breathing issues. She loved to read all sorts of books, embroider cloth, crochet afghans, grow strawberries, and watch old westerns on tv.
