Ona was a talented artist who created beautiful pieces in several different mediums.  She made jewelry, designed and decorated cakes, sewed masks and enjoyed drawing and writing.  Her greatest loves were her dogs Pumpkin and Thor.  You would never see Ona without Pumpkin by her side.  Ona's greatest joy in life was seeing their puppies bring love to other families.
