Fifty-two-year-old Havens achieved her dream when she opened Glee Cake & Pastry at 117 S. Main St., in November 2011, the Standard reports.
After Havens fell ill in November 2012, Lisa Delong took over the pastry shop and will continue to handle the business until family members decide what to do with it.
According to the story, Havens participated in a variety of local events like Festival of Lights and Chocolate Extravaganza and supported numerous local charities.
Havens’ family will receive friends from noon to 2 p.m. Wednesday at the Caskey-Mitchell Funeral Home in Stockbridge, Michigan.

Oh, no, this is really very sad to find out. During many weekends, I venture to sightsee in Chelsea and always stop for a delicious cupcake and yummy coffee at Glee. They have so many wonderful cupcake flavors and on Sundays after 3pm, a half price happy hour which is a great deal. I hope that Glee stays open. It is comforting to read that she achieved her dream. My condolences to her family, staff, friends. So very sorry to hear this news.
