Mallorie’s work career started as a student in school. She was employed at the Macleod’s store and in the kitchen at East View Lodge. After her schooling she took the Nurse’s Aide course and worked at East View Lodge for several years.

Mallorie had many interests, one being history. She organized two different celebrations both of which took place in the summer of 2005. One celebration was for the Land Titles 100th Anniversary and the other was in honour of the unveiling of the cairn for the Sinclairville School. Mallorie was also on The Beautiful Plains Story history book committee from 2006-2008. Mallorie loved photography, gardening, and spending time with friends and family. The family have many fond memories of their years on the farm where they enjoyed skating on the dugout, tobogganing, cross-country skiing, quadding, biking, hiking and so much more.
