She taught her daughter to be a strong woman and her sons to be respectful gentlemen. She taught her children to be good citizens, to tell the truth, to work hard and do the job right the first time. She loved the Twins and Vikings and passed that on to her kids as well. Many thanks to her caregivers at Fairview Ridges. A special thank you to all the staff and residents at Lilydale Senior Living. She loved you all! LaVina will be interred next to her husband, Troy, at Fort Snelling National Cemetery. robertsfuneralandcremation.com
