She was proud of her work at the New Hampshire State House prior to her marriage and as a mother became highly skilled in the role of a caregiver. Later in life she took those skills and worked as a home health aide for the VNA and cared independently as an aide for many elderly people and their families in the Millbury area late into her life.

She maintained a sense of humor even when her memory failed her and always made visitors feel welcome.
