She was active with the Lincoln Park and Duluth flower and garden clubs, bowling leagues and a Glensheen tour guide.

In her later years she enjoyed crossword puzzles, gardening and visits to the casino.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband; brothers Theodore and Carmine; sisters Mary Wisocki and Catherine Slocum; a grandson, Scott Langlois; and her special friend Don Mattson.

She is survived by her children, Philip (Frances) Langlois of Severna Park , Md., and Carmine (Theresa) Langlois and Thomas (Patricia) Langlois, both of Duluth; sister Patricia (Dennis) Norlander of Duluth; numerous grandchildren, great-grandchildren and many nieces and nephews.
