After a few years of retirement, Heidi realized retirement wasn’t for her. She went back to work for Remax and did not fully retire until she was 73 years old. Heidi was a loving mother and grandmother. She loved spending time with her family and especially her grandchildren. One of the greatest joys in life for Heidi was being a “Nana”.
