4-wheeling, hunting, fishing, target shooting, being outdoors, and carpentry work were among her favorite past times. One thing she enjoyed doing with her husband was playing shoot-the-can with . 22 rifles.

She had a passion for quilting and had made a quilt for all of her grandkids for their weddings and was in the process of making a quilt for all her great-grandkids. Her greatest joy was being with her family. She was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.

She loved being involved in the Scouting program and understood the program better than anyone. She enjoyed teaching Primary and loved the little kids. She managed the Jewelry Counter at K-Mart for many years until her retirement.
