She graduated from Danbury High School in 1954 and St. Mary’s Nursing School for Children in Bayside, NY. After her marriage she devoted her time to her children and extended family many of whom made their home with her over the years.
She and her husband were founding members of the Danbury High School Booster Club and hosted foster children for the State of CT. She taught CCD classes for St. Joseph’s Church and volunteered at Danbury Hospital. She was a country girl at heart; she loved nature and all animals and spent as much time as possible at her vacation home in Maine. She was a very kind hearted woman who had a large extended family and many friends who will miss her dearly.
