She especially felt a real bonding with David's oldest daughter and her family. She is survived by her husband, David, his three children, four granddaughters and two grandsons. She is also survived by two nieces (Gloria Peterson and Bonnie Erickson), two nephews (Michael and David Gittins) and many dear cousins with whom she felt a special closeness.
