She always danced to the beat of a different drummer and enjoyed life to the fullest. She loved trees, wearing french berets, taking roadtrips to the Ozarks, and collecting antiques ... but above all she loved her beloved dogs Perry the samoyed, her husky Jontue and her big fluffy spotted mix Domino among others, including Honey the blue healer, Caribou the malamute, Kaniki the keeshound and Princess the siamese cat.
