They lived in a home they purchased on Gillis Road in the Cradock section of Norfolk County (now Portsmouth) since the summer of 1936. She was a member of Holy Angels Catholic Church and the Sewing Club of the church. Her life was centered on her family, her friends, her work as a ``nanny'' and her church. She loved flowers and animals and both prospered in her care. She was a faithful woman who left this earth and the people she knew better for being here.
She has a cousin, Ida Schimmel of Norfolk.
