She attended Schenk High School in East Millinocket, ME and the Rhode Island Hospital School of Nursing where she received her R.N., following in her mother’s footsteps.
When she completed her training during World War II, mutual friends introduced her to William G. Hart who had just returned from war duty. They became great friends and later married. They enjoyed a happy marriage for 70 years.

She is survived by her husband, William G. Hart, Sr. and by her son and daughter and their spouses, William Jr. and Myra Hart, and Anne (Hart) and Daniel Cavazos; grandchildren William G. Hart III and wife Shirley, step granddaughter Morgan Taylor, Jonathan Cavazos, Mary Katherine(Cavazos) Flores and husband Mathew, Elizabeth (Cavazos) Rubio and husband Gabriel, Emily Cavazos, and Thomas Cavazos; three great grandchildren William Hart IV, James Hart, and Madelyn Flores.
