She was a lifelong member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter – Day Saints, and was baptized by her uncle, Taulbee Shrout as a child. She held different jobs at different points in her life, including sewing parachutes during the war.

There are many nieces and nephews both passed and surviving. In her later years, she enjoyed socializing and dancing to country music at the Senior Citizens in Hamilton and was a member of the Fraternal Order of Eagles. One of her most important interests was her pets. She took in animals in need of a home, and gave them one. She enjoyed the wildlife in her back yard where the birds, squirrels and rabbits all gathered together, like in a fairy tale garden, and waited for her each day. She enjoyed reciting the poem “There Are Fairies at the Bottom of My Garden” to her grandchildren. Services will be at the Colligan Funeral Home, 437 South 3rd Street, Hamilton.
