She was an avid bird watcher and entertained the children at church with her bird-call watch. In her earlier years, she and Dennis did a lot of walking in newly plowed fields to hunt arrow heads or fishing at Lake Erie. You would find the fishing poles in the back of their truck at all times. She also enjoyed motorcycle riding. Calling hours will be from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm on Friday, July 12th at the Barkdull Funeral Home & Crematory in Shelby.
