She is the mother of four children. Two biological children, Colleen Marie Jones-Lamar (Joe) of Turlock, CA and Leslie Ann Johnson (Jeffrey) of Odessa, WA.  She is blessed with two children from her marriage to Tom, Bridget Zehring of Seattle & Tony Esser (Tawny) of Bellingham, WA.

Fondest memories are of the summers spent at our family’s properties on Summit Lake. Mom loved to sunbathe back in the day. Mom was an avid gardener spending hours tending to her flowers. She had a huge heart and love for animals; all of her pets were rescues. I know Nila (their dog, a rescue) is going to miss you so much.
