She was a 47-year season ticket holder to Notre Dame football games, an avid gardener and enjoyed traveling, having lunch with friends and old schoolmates and especially watching her granddaughter perform on stage.

Poll

Indiana is now the only state in the union that prohibits carry-out alcohol sales on Sunday. What do you think about Indiana’s current law?

It’s time to make the sale of carry-out alcohol legal on Sundays.
The state should continue to prohibit Sunday carry-out alcohol sales.
I really don’t care one way or the other.
