Widowed at a young age, she brought up her family by selling Tupperware which eventually led her to becoming a unit manager and winning numerous awards. Later in life she did sales work for Harvard Pilgrim of MA.
She was an avid reader who also enjoyed the arts and could always be found locally or in Boston at a concert, or a museum. She enjoyed traveling and spending time with her 5 granddaughters. She spent a lot of time supporting her granddaughters by traveling to different gymnasiums to see either a gymnastic or a baton twirling competition. She never missed a choral concert or a drama production at South Middle School and Brockton High School. She could be found most of the time helping by selling tickets, anything needed backstage and especially for many years, upstairs in the Fine Arts building sewing costumes for the musical each year. She enjoyed good wine and good food.
