She was the amazing and beloved mother to Gregory (Michele) Bliss, Christina (Brian) Johnson, Johnny (Amber) Bliss, William (Emily) Coleman and Sara (James) DeSantis. She was also grandmother to 14 grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. She loved to bake with her grandchildren, decorate her home for the holidays and took pride in her gardens in her beautiful backyard. Most of all, she loved spending time with her family and friends. She will be deeply missed by all who knew her. In light of the current conditions, the family will not hold visiting hours. A private ceremony will take place in her honor. In lieu of flowers, donations made be made to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
