Kure Beach, NC was her second home as she treasured her time on the beach and cherished spending time there with family and friends. She taught us the true meaning of perseverance and showed us that even in the toughest of times it is possible to find joy and spread love. We give thanks that she is no longer in pain and in the arms of Our Lord and her husband Chet.
