As a teenager in St. Stephens she worked at several jobs; Ganong Candy factory, the Axe factory and the Wearknitters, making uniforms for World War II servicemen.

Mom spent the rest of her life in Kamloops. She made several road-trips back to the Maritimes to visit friends and family. Mom and Jim loved to travel and camp in their Chevy camper van.
Mom worked at several jobs in Kamloops before settling in as part of the kitchen staff at Royal Inland Hospital where she worked till retirement in 1989.
