And in her later years, she enjoyed lunch with the “Mini’s”, dinner at Carmie's as well as playing bridge at the Landing and bridge or mahjong at the Club. She always looked forward to the Pfalzgraf Family Reunion each August, visits with her grandkids and especially loved beating anyone at gin or cribbage!
