Mony was a vibrant, caring soul and fiercely protective of her loved ones. She’d give you the shirt off her back in a heartbeat. Singing was one of her greatest loves, and she was an accomplished songwriter, and musician. She had a Magical way of making everyone feel special, no matter your background. One of the most playful people you’d ever meet, with no shortage of GREAT bad jokes. You could follow a trail of laughter and find Mony at the center… every time.

She was a caregiver for Kenny’s Granny and Kenny’s mom, Sharon, and several others. Her specialty was cooking holiday meals for her homeless friends. Loved the Elks Lodge #2473 as a loyal Elkette.
