She was very active in Southgate Chapter Order of the Eastern Star and a member of Lake Burien Presbyterian Church. She was a devoted and loving mother and grandmother to her family and a caring and loyal companion to her many friends. Mona was preceded in death by her husband in 1982. She enjoyed square dancing and traveled extensively in her early retirement years with her husband and later with many of her friends.

The family wishes to express their deepest gratitude to the staff of the Fleming Homes for their loving care given our mother all these many years.
