LoLo (as she was known by many) treasured her family and friends and enjoyed keeping up with them and hearing stories about their lives. Her love of travel and flying took her to many places around the United States and world. She had a unique appreciation of New Mexico, especially its art, clothes and jewelry. She loved paint horses, beautiful flowers, Coca-Cola and Hershey’s chocolate, going to movies, playing cards and dancing to classic country music.
