Amelia loved knitting, crocheting and fishing with her cane pole. She also enjoyed doing crossword puzzles. Amelia was famous for her homemade noodles. She and her husband were very caring people, taking in brothers, nieces and nephews to live in their home for many years and also giving their time to take care of other nieces and nephews as needed.
