She enjoyed keeping in touch with classmates and cherished her lifelong friendships with Nancy Kiernan and Karen Stevens, and many more. She had a soft spot in her heart for animals, especially the ones she visited at DEW Haven. She cherished her friendship with the owners, and brought many people to visit the animal sanctuary.
She is survived by her three children, Amber Bronish, and her husband Blaine, of Wilmington, NC, Bethany, and her husband Jamie Drouin, of Winthrop, and Caleb Bourgault, and his partner Ashley Besaw, of Plattsburgh, NY; three sisters, Susan Kennedy and her husband, Jeff of Strong, Sharon Gilbert of Farmington, Sonja Walker and her husband, Randy of Strong; Six grandchildren, Emily Bronish, Austin Drouin, and his wife Kelsey, Darien, Nathan, Shelby, and Owen Drouin; four fur-grandbabies, Moxie, Dobby, JarJar, and Rex; and many nieces, and cousins.
