She loved watching her grandchildren in all of their activities; and she especially cherished the “girl time” shopping with her mother at Northpark Mall.  They were known far and wide by many merchants at various malls and shopping centers!!   Playing Bingo was also a favorite hobby, where she could also spend additional time with family and friends.

Memorials can be made to the Maysville Volunteer Fire Department.

Those left to honor her memory include, her husband of over 33 years, Bruce; sons and a daughter-in-law, Jeremy Scott Baumer, Maysville, Steven Michael and Kathleen Baumer, Lowden, Iowa; grandchildren, Katelynn and Jeremy Baumer, and Theodore Baumer; her parents, Ted and Margaret “Maggie” Boone, Davenport; a sister-in-law, Beth O’Connell, Imperial, Missouri; and her beloved canine companion, Chula.
