Following her graduation from Arlington Heights High School in Fort Worth, she enlisted in the U.S. Navy where she served honorably as a member of the WAVES. After leaving the Navy she later worked for the government in the General Services Administration in several locations until her retirement.

She loved to write, inheriting the love of poetry from both her mother and grandmother, and she authored many poems of her own. She was a member of the Church of Christ and her faith was central in her life.
While she spent many years in Missouri, she always stayed true to her Fort Worth roots.
