She married John Joseph Carey (born 1908, in Berlin, WI) in 1942 in Chicago where they had met. They settled there after WWII and reared one son and five daughters. She was blessed with 19 great grandchildren and one great-great grandchild.

Cremation was conducted by Northern IL Funeral Services, Inc., and a memorial service will be held in the summer at the Salem Honey Creek Church and Cemetery in Prairie du Sac, WI, where her parents and other Accola ancestors from Switzerland are interred.
