She was a member of Sts Peter and Paul Catholic Church in Krakow, near Genoa, the church choir and the altar society. Her love for the farm, raising children, gardening, especially her flowers in her yard and most favorite Geraniums, was work but yet not because of the love and care of her family. As a farm wife and mother she always canned vegetables from the garden and of course making and canning sourkraut from cabbage and her famous dill pickles.
