Candace met the love of her life at a social event and the two quickly became inseparable. They were married in 2010 and have spent their years together, celebrating life, love and every precious moment they shared.

She floated through life like a true social butterfly lighting every room with her laughter whether she was singing, dancing, cooking or sharing quiet moments with her husband, her love for her family, and friends was boundless. Her heart always open always giving. The lake was her peaceful haven one of her favorite places to be.

In celebrating her life, we honor a woman who embodied life, laughter, and love in all she did. Candace will be remembered for her electric personality and her profound dedication to the family she cherished so deeply.
