Predeceased by her husband Ralph, she is survived by her son Eric (Polly) and grandson Joshua.

She briefly taught Kindergarten at Dundalk United Methodist Church, and later volunteered in the church office, as well as helping with Vacation Bible School at Dundalk Presbyterian Church. She also enjoyed baking, gardening, and crafts.
