Children were always attracted to her because she treated them with love, respect and humor she was everyone's grandmother. She was a member of the Foothills Unitarian Church and wished everyone to savor the glory of each brief day. Survivors include her devoted husband of 59 years, Robert of Fort Collins two sons, Mitchell Seeley of Denver and Neil Seeley of Durango a daughter, Janet Seeley of Fort Collins three grandchildren, two nieces, one nephew and their families.
