Aileen's children were her life and legacy.  She was very proud of each one and let everyone know it.  She like all Grandparents cherished and loved her Grandchildren.   She always looked forward to when all her family would get together. Mom raised us well.  Mom was devoted to her Savior and prayed daily for all of us.  Getting us to church was her priority.  Mom was known for being the "meanest mom on the block".  We often talked about her big stick and we all knew who was her "favorite".  Mom you will forever be remembered and missed.  Give our Doug a big hug.  We love you.
