Her school resume included Pemberton High School, where she taught English. The picture is from the PHS yearbook, possibly 1950-1953. She was active in several teacher organizations. She also volunteered at the public library, her church, the parochial school, and a nursing home. Although active outside her home, she was mother to four children and grandmother to seven.
