Ron and Mavis loved to travel in their RV and exploring their retirement, where they loved to stay in Arizona during the winters. 

She was an amazing Mom to her own children and many other children that needed love and compassion. She brought in many friends and was a Mom to many. Mavis loved everything about life, and loved everyone she met and always had a big smile and a hug for ya, and took the time to you she loved you every time she had the chance. 

Mavis was also an amazing grandma, great grandma, and great, great grandma! She had enough love to go around to each and every one of them. 

She loved her Senior Center for all that they do, and for all of the friends that she was able to get together with, play cards and laugh. She enjoyed every minute of that. She also loved her Church and the many friends she congregated in faith with.
