She was dedicated to her mother & father till their deaths. She was the care taker of Grandma Thompson her whole life. I know she went to Ames, Iowa to be a House mother to a fraternity of males @ ISU. She was beloved by them & they disliked greatly that she was returning to Grand Junction to continue to be by her aging mother Hattie Thompson. She remained at her side until Hattie died 3 Aug. 1981. I do recollect that she went on a trip to the Dakotas. She brought my sister Sandra and I an Indian doll that was dress in real deer skin clothing and a tiny pack on her side. She made all of nieces & nephews special in her way she gave out her time and love. Her baking was incomparable. The after school place to go for some of what ever she had baked or laid out for anyone who arrived.
