They enjoyed going on car rides to count eagles, visiting friends at the L&M Tavern, watching Minnesota sports, casino trips, and spending time with their good friends, Olvin and Chris, and Earl and Joan. Fun memories were made by those six.
Alida had a huge, loving heart for her family, she loved spoiling her grandchildren. Even if it was 80 and sunny she needed to know you were safe.
