She was an amazing grandmother! She loved to play and do crafts with them. She also loved to brag about them to anyone who would listen.  Jolene was known for her laugh which will be greatly missed.

Jolene loved being in nature with friends and family.  She biked across Wyoming, rode four wheelers all over the mountains, spent time at the beach, and many other outdoor adventures. To her, there was no more peaceful sound than the sound of running water.
