Mrs, Anderson worked as a food service worker at Irvington General

After that she flew to Hawaii a few times, Florida and California.

My mother was born under the sign of Taurus whose symbol is the she bull which fit my mom. She was very strong independent woman
who lived her life the way she wanted especially these last few years.
No matter what live handed her she faced it with inner strengh and
a great sense of humor.

I only hope I have inherited these traits and pass them onto my children this would be the best gift that she could leave her family.
