She later worked for Pulte Homes in Sun City before semi-retiring. She was an active member of the Sertoma Club for many years and oversaw the East View High School Serteens for a few years when her Serteens won the National Serteens honor. She was a member of Wellspring Methodist Church near Sun City before becoming members of First United Methodist Church in Georgetown. Her passions were being of service to the community, her family, and she loved gardening. She was a bright light during trying times, and no matter what, you knew you were loved. She was a friend to everyone and touched many lives. Among all the sentiments, the quality most remarked about her was her kindness to others and such a nice person to be around.

Her memorial service will be a Rosary on Friday, May 1 at 6 pm at Ramsey Funeral Home in Georgetown. Her celebration of life will be held Saturday, May 2 at 1pm at First United Methodist Church in Georgetown with a small reception at the church after the service.
