Cora was a kind-hearted, loving wife, mother and grandmother! Children brought so much joy to her heart! She enjoyed spending time in her kitchen cooking and baking. A lot of time the kids would get off the bus to have fresh home-made cookies or bread waiting for them.
Cora loved sewing, quilting, and embroidery. She made many quilts and embroidered dish towels for her family and had the pleasure of gifting them as well! Cora had a green thumb and loved planting her flowers and gardening. She always had a warm and welcoming home.
