Her early years were spent in the family home located on Beards Hollow Road in the Town of Richmondville NY. She was a 1967 graduate of Richmondville Central School.

Once her children left home, she worked at convenience stores and as a cook for the sheriff's department before retiring to spend her later years with her family. She was a member of the Central Bridge Ladies Auxiliary.
