She and her brothers got their names in the local newspaper for killing 100 rattlesnakes in one day. she moved to Oregon at 18 and saved a fried's dog by killing a bobcat with a big stick (she thought it was just a big, mean cat attacking the dog). Over many years (until she was 74) she worked as a waitress at Harvey's Cafe in Battle Ground, The Holland, The Totem Pole, several Thunderbirds and Red Lions, and The Hood River Inn. She liked playing pinochle, quilting, gardening and watching western movis. She loved her family and would do anything for them.
