While in her teen years, Marueen loved riding horseback. She rode in areas of Canoga Park and Chattsworth, California. Maureen also entered local rodeos in the barrel racing category, with Blue Ribbons to show.

Maureen also enjoyed singing with her husband, Jonah. They would play for various hula troops in Northern California. Though Hawaiian music was their specialty, they also played Country Western music. Maureen’s favorite song became Jambalaya, a Hank Williams, Sr Composition.

Before retirement, Maureen worked at Fairfield Medical Hospital as an accountant.
