When time allowed while raising her five children, Coletta could be found on nice days working in her large flower garden - a passion she inherited from her parents.  She was a seamstress, genealogist, stamp collector and avid reader and loved to bake. 

The family would like everyone to know that Coletta lived a full and wonderful life.  She was a great role model for her children and grandchildren.  In her last years, she was cared for by wonderful and caring companions.
