When she wasn’t working she was spending time with her favorite friends making sure they were okay; Barb Cline, her sister in law Doris Simmons, brother in law Jess Wyer, Carolyn Cornell, and her neighbor Sandy to name a few. She also truly loved her hair dresser Lisa and her friends Jim and Pat; her longtime friends Steve (Deb) Eversole and Kerry Eversole. She loved laughing and hanging out with “her” Todd, and Flo as well. She spent everyday with her daughter Nickie and family that gathered there. She loved fishing, yardwork, playing dice and cards, and her Fighting Illini and Chicago Cubs. She also loved watching wrestling on T.V.
