Adrienne loved nature and enjoyed many hours camping, fishing, swimming, sliding and walking in every season. Her strong beliefs in her culture and traditions, resulted in her ability to speak her Ojibwe` language and create beautiful bead work. Adrienne loved pow-wows and danced from the time she was small. Although she travelled and lived in the Yukon and Shoal Lake Cree Nation, Saskatchewan. Lac La Croix was always her home and refuge. Adrienne's love of life was demonstrated by how she celebrated it with her children and extended family. She was very outgoing, energetic, friendly, kind and socialable. From daily activities to birthdays, special occasions and holidays, Adrienne took special care and attention in living life to the fullest. These memories we will keep close to our hearts forever. A loving, nuturing home was created by Adrienne for her children. She read bed-time stories, played games, did crafts, baked and cooked with them. Her home was always open for other children to take part in any activity that they were involved in. Her wonderful spirit will live on in her children.
