After moving to Columbiana, she was employed at PHD Manufacturing until her retirement. She was a lifelong member of Immanuel United Methodist Church in East Palestine. As a young woman, she enjoyed playing softball. Later in life, she and her sister Rachel spent many happy hours visiting various casinos to play the slot machines.
