She was endlessly proud of her children and grandchildren, and never missed an opportunity to brag about their accomplishments. Her kindness, generosity, sense of humor, and unwavering love for family touched countless lives and leave a legacy that will be remembered for generations.

Survivors include her 4 children: Deanne (Paul) Gieser of St. Paul, MN, Cathy Long of Cedar, IA, Philip (Janet) Weber of Norwalk, IA and Patrick Weber of Minneapolis, MN; 4 grandchildren: Sydney and Jake Long, Rachel (Zac) Ross and Morgan Weber; 1 great-granddaughter: Willow Ross; siblings: Ronald (Alice) Gudenkauf and Arden (Jane) Gudenkauf;

in-laws: Mary Jane Gudenkauf, Kay (Bill) Recker, Lois Bries and Gerald (Jan) Weber.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Joe; siblings: Robert Gudenkauf and Marion (Leroy) Hildebrand
