Upon retire-

Dogs for the Blind, Henry
Ford Hospital and served on
the advisory committee at the
Jewish Historical Society. She
had an enormous love for travel
and adventure. She visited 80
countries, played with adult
lions and tigers; but the true
love of her volunteering life was
working with baby pandas in
China on several occasions. She
loved to fly, which brought her
from a simple two-seater up to
a small jet. She will be greatly
missed.
She is survived by

is also survived by her loving
