She enjoyed travelling with her family by camping across the States and Canada. There were countless weekend camping trips in Wisconsin. Her most memorable trips were to Canadian Rockies, Colorado, Black Hills, Mississippi, Alabama, Great Smokey Mountains, Virginia and North Carolina. She especially liked trips to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, including the Porcupine Mountains and Copper Harbor. Her family made frequent trips to Door County to see her retired parents, aunt and uncle.

Every fall she loved to can pickles, tomatoes and pizza sauce. There always was a family dog and she enjoyed watching birds at her numerous bird feeders and baths, especially goldfinches.

Her pride and joy were her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
