In 1953, she was Hiawatha’s homecoming queen and she lived the rest of her life with a shining crown. She attended Baker University and was a proud member of Delta Delta Delta sorority. She and Dick married in 1956 and over their 52-year marriage; they lived in Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, and Oregon. They traveled near and far and were wonderful parents and grandparents.
