After raising 5 children, working in the parish office at St Cecilia's and then for Wisconsin Electric, she spent the last 20 plus years of her career working for the Mequon Thiensville School District. She enjoyed many hobbies over the years, her favorite being riding her bicycle. She met many friends through various riding groups and participated in lots of organized bicycle events, often riding 50 or more miles a day, even well into her 70's. She also volunteered many, many hours with several local organizations over the years.
The family extends their deepest gratitude to the staff of Ellen's Home of Port Washington for the wonderful care they gave mom the last two years, and especially through the last two months. They also extend their thanks to the staff of Horizon Hospice for their care and support.
