She was also active in senior center exercise classes and enjoyed researching her family genealogy. The family would like to thank the staff at the Carlyle House for the support and care provided in recent months. Private family services and entombment were held at Miami Memory Gardens on Nov 23. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made to a charity of choice.
