When first married she settled in Grove City where she remained for almost three quarters of a century while raising her family; and, later pursuing a long, career with Big Lots. Upon her retirement from Big Lots she pursued her true passions which were gardening and curiosity about anything mechanical. She spent the remainder of her life growing amazing flower gardens and tinkering with and repairing almost anything mechanical. She was kind and overly generous and loved by the entire community.
