Regina enjoyed gardening, crocheting, reading and other activities that brought joy to her and others. For several years while she lived at Mabel Swan she made table decorations for all of the holiday parties, which were admired by everyone. She was an excellent cook and no matter what she had on hand, the meals she prepared were always first class. She was a long time member of the Moose Lodge, VFW Auxiliary, Eagles, YLI, RSVP and other organizations that gave her joy. Regina's family would like to thank all the staff at Summitview Health Care Center for the special care and attention given to our mother during her stay and Dr. David Doornink who took care of her for many years with such kindness and compassion.
