She found solace in the simple pleasures: tending to her beloved flowers, spending quiet moments on the front porch watching birds with her family by her side. Cooking brought her immense joy, and she could often could be found immersed in a good book for hours on end without interruption. Her favorite indulgences included butter pecan ice cream and savoring a delicious hamburger.
