Golda was a very kind soul that always put others’ wellbeing ahead of her own. She appreciated the little things in life and cherished time spent with her family more than anything. Golda enjoyed challenging herself with a good puzzle, knitting or a game of bingo. She loved singing along with friends and family to some of her favourite songs with a cold beverage in hand.
